Hybrid Molecomputer Using Vapor Phase Assembly

Abstract

Current work on molecular electronics relies almost entirely on liquid phase processing. Gas phase processing offers far superior uniformity and reproducibility. The scope of this work was to investigate vapor phase process that will fully integrate the in-situ steps of sample preparation, active organic molecule deposition, and gentle gas-moderated metallic overcoating, which will enable our proposed multi-layer stacked device. The goal of this work is to mate these active molecular gates with a MOS-based post-processing circuit.
