32. Not shown are the corresponding spectra of PDDA/PSS/1, PDDA/PSS/2, and PDDA/PSS/3 on ITO-electrodes, due to low transparence of the electrode material at <300 nm.
33. As far as the vertical orientation of the nanorods is concerned, the rigid nature of dyad 1 prompts to a perpendicular alignment (i.e., with respect to the electrolyte layer) of individual molecules. In vertical dimensions, the resulting one-dimensional aggregates are then composed of two dyad molecules.
