Nonpolar gemini amphiphiles self-assemble into stacked layers of nano-objects.
Fluorine in bloom: A nonpolar fluorocarbon/hydrocarbon tetrablock self-assembles into a first monolayer consisting of an array of densely packed discrete circular surface micelles (dark); this layer is surmounted by a second layer of such nano-objects (light).
