Designing Electronic Components and Devices from Inorganic Molecular Scaffolds.

摘要

The synthesis of new photo and electrical materials for molecular devices was completed comprising a signaling moiety (fluorophore), a spacer group and a guest-binding site (receptor); useful in electro- and photochromatic, OLED, and photovoltaic materials. Our research effort is concentrated on the development of new organic materials that exhibit unique and useful luminescent and electrochemical properties of scientific interest for DoD applications. In this research project, organic ligand compounds containing p-phenylenevinylene, fluorine, perylenebis(dicarboximide), and ehtynyl metal-chelating molecular scaffolds were synthesized and the luminescent properties investigated.
