Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Self‐Assembly</bold> The cooperative effects in the adsorption process at an octanoic acid/highly oriented pyrolytic graphite interface has been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy for the three isomers of a diarylethene derivative. It was found that the annulated isomer has a very large equilibrium constant, which explains the predominantly observed ordering of the annulated isomer. The analysis using a cooperative model indicates the formation of mixed crystals and mixing‐induced cooperativity, providing a new view of the formation of 2D multicomponent molecular ordering.
