Abstract
Temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction exhibits that the J-aggregates in crystals of bis-(dimethylamino)-heptamethinium perchlorate contrac t unusually strong at low temperature. The intermolecular distance bet ween the dye cations is reduced from 354 pm at room temperature to 336 pm at 30 K. The results are an important due for the explanation of u nusual temperature dependence of collective phenomena of J-aggregates.
