governs the formation of a multitude of supramoleculararchitectures depending on the temperature (thermotropic liquid crystals) and/or of the solvent (lyotropic liquid crystals) [7][8]. In the case of the thermotropic liquid crystals the arrangements give rise to nematic phases (molecules are aligned
