Correlated rotational switching in two-dimensional self-assembled molecular rotor arrays

Single molecular machines are capable of a variety of functions, but methods to couple motion between them are still lacking. Here, Wasioet al. report the emergent behaviour of spontaneously formed two-dimensional crystals, which display correlated switching of their sub-molecular rotor units.
