The Development and Study of Molecular Electronic Switches and their Field-Effect Transistor (FET) Device Properties

Abstract

The fabrication of molecular electronic devices from inorganic and organic compounds is being actively pursued. In this research project, inorganic compounds will be synthesized containing a signaling moiety (donor group), a molecular switching component, a spacer group and a guest-binding site (acceptor group). Donor, bridging, and acceptor groups (D-B-A) will consist of fluorene, and perylene and naphthalene bis(dicarboximide) components. Photochromic switching compounds comprising bisthienylethene, azobenzene, fulgimide, and spiropyran will also be used to fabricate materials that have interesting properties as photovoltaic or materials suitable in field-effect transistor (FET).
