Properties of Thiol End-Capped and Iodine-Doped Sexithiophene Disulfide Semiconducting Polymers Bridging Nanogap Gold Electrodes
Doped photoresponsive nanodevices. A thiol end-capped and iodine-doped sexithiophene disulfide polymer is used to bridge nanogap gold electrodes via an in-situ oxidation, doping, and self-assembly method. Temperature-dependent semi-conducting and photoresponsive nanodevices are formed and Coulomb-blockade phenomena are observed in these organic molecule-based nanodevices.
