摘要

A molecular electronic device for constructing nanoelectronic circuits comprises a redox-active moiety having an electron donor (D) and an electron acceptor (A), the electron donor and the electron acceptor (A) having a respective contact spot (K1, K2) for forming connections with other devices, and the contact spots (K1, K2) facilitating charge transport to the device and away from the device. In particular, the respective contact spot (K1, K2) of electron donor (D) and electron acceptor (A) is a permanent contact spot for mediating the charge transport across a permanent chemical bond, the contact spot respectively comprising one of the binding partners of the chemical bond. Multiple such devices can be combined via the contact spots to form a module or an electronic circuit.
