Single-Molecule Break Junctions Based on a Perylene-Diimide Cyano-Functionalized (PDI8-CN2) Derivative
In this letter, we report the single-molecule conductance properties of a cyano-functionalized perylene-diimide derivative (PDI8-CN2) investigated with gold nano-electrodes. This molecule is of large interest for the fabrication of high-performance and air-stable n-type organic field-effect transistors. Low-bias experiments performed on mechanically controllable break junctions reveal the prese...
متن کاملSingle-Molecule Charge Transport and Electrochemical Gating in Redox-Active Perylene Diimide Junctions
A series of redox-active perylene tetracarboxylic diimide (PTCDI) derivatives have been synthesized and studied by electrochemical cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical scanning tunnelling microscopy break junction techniques. These PTCDI molecules feature the substitution of pyrrolidine at the bay (1,7-) position of perylene and are named pyrrolidine-PTCDIs. These moieties exhibit a small ban...
متن کاملSolvent effect on the self-assembled structure of an amphiphilic perylene diimide derivative.
An amphiphilic electron-deficient (n-type) perylene diimide has been synthesized and characterized. The diimide contains a hydrophobic long chain on one end and a hydrophilic ethoxy chain on the other. The self-assembly of this molecule in polar and nonpolar solvents has been demonstrated by concentration- and temperature-dependent absorption and fluorescence spectroscopies. Analysis of the spe...
متن کاملOne-dimensional self-assembly of a water soluble perylene diimide molecule by pH triggered hydrogelation.
A water soluble perylene diimide molecule has been fabricated into nanofibers via a pH triggered hydrogelation route. The one-dimensional self-assembly is dominated by the intermolecular π-π stacking interactions in concert with the hydrogen bonding between the carboxylic acid side chains. The anisotropic electronic and optical properties observed for the nanofibers are consistent with the one-...
متن کاملElectron Delocalization in Perylene Diimide Helicenes.
We report two new helicenes derived from the double fusion of an acene with two perylene diimide (PDI) subunits. These PDI-helicene homologs exhibit very different structural and electronic properties, despite differing by only a single ring in the link between the PDI units. The shorter inter-PDI link brings the two PDI subunits closer together, and this results in the collision of their respe...
