title: Orientation-selective alignments of nanoblocks in a and c directions of a tetragonal system through molecularly mediated manipulation.
abstract: Tetragonal Mn3O4 nanocuboids were aligned in selective crystallographic directions by molecularly mediated manipulation. Alignment in the a direction was produced by a face-by-a face assembly of hydrophobic nanocuboids covered with oleic acid. Another 1D array in the c direction was obtained through c face-to-c face assembly with the replacement of the organic modifiers.
