However, large-area extended supramolecular structures of donor-acceptor combinations with controlled self-assembly pathways are hardly accessible. In this context, as a representative example, seeded on-surface supramolecular growth of tetrathiafulvalene and tetracyano-p-quinodimethane (TTF-TCNQ) using active termini of solution-formed sheaves has been introduced to form an extended assembly. We demonstrate for the first time, the creation of a large-area donor-acceptor assembly on the surface, which is practically very tedious, using a seeded, evaporation-assisted growth process. The excellent molecular ordering in this assembly is substantiated by its good electrical conductivity (similar to 10(-2) S cm(-1)). The on-surface assembly via both internally formed and externally added sheaf-like seeds open new pathways in supramolecular chemistry and device applications.</p>1 aGoudappagouda1 aChithiravel, Sundaresan1 aKrishnamoorthy, Kothandam1 aGosavi, Suresh, W.1 aBabu, Sukumaran, Santhosh  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/seeded-surface-supramolecular-growth-large-area-conductive-donor-acceptor-assembly
