title: An all-organic steroid-D-π-A modular design drives ferroelectricity in supramolecular solids and nano-architectures at RT.
abstract: Confluence of a modular design approach and self-assembly with a 'steroid-D-π-A' module generates spontaneous polarization in solids and for the first time in nano-architectures constituted from organogels, at room temperature (RT).
