چکیده
This study details a new derivative of the contorted HBCs that self-organizes into one-dimensional, single-crystalline fibers. X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and electron diffraction studies show that they have an orthorhombic unit cell with dimensions of 5.8 nm x 4.5 nm x 0.45 nm. Each fiber is composed of a few thousands columns. A method is put forth that utilizes elastomer stamps to manipulate and position isolated fibers in organic field effect transistors.

متن کاملLong-range energy transfer in self-assembled quantum dot-DNA cascades.
The size-dependent energy bandgaps of semiconductor nanocrystals or quantum dots (QDs) can be utilized in converting broadband incident radiation efficiently into electric current by cascade energy transfer (ET) between layers of different sized quantum dots, followed by charge dissociation and transport in the bottom layer. Self-assembling such cascade structures with angstrom-scale spatial pr...
متن کاملDirect measurement of electrical conductance through a self-assembled molecular layer.
The self-assembly of organic molecules on surfaces is a promising approach for the development of nanoelectronic devices. Although a variety of strategies have been used to establish stable links between molecules, little is known about the electrical conductance of these links. Extended electronic states, a prerequisite for good conductance, have been observed for molecules adsorbed on metal s...
متن کاملTuning the molecular order of C60-based self-assembled monolayers in field-effect transistors.
The control of order in organic semiconductor systems is crucial to achieve desired properties in electronic devices. We have studied the order in fullerene functionalized self-assembled monolayers by mixing the active molecules with supporting alkyl phosphonic acids of different chain length. By adjusting the length of the molecules, structural modifications of the alignment of the C60 head gr...
