Organized Nanostructures
Self-Organizing Molecular Electronics.
Liquid crystalline molecular semiconductors and photoconductors are intriguing candidates for molecular electronic and nanoelectronic structures and systems. Liquid crystals have intrinsic fluidity like a liquid, possess the unique ability to spontaneously self-organize into highly ordered structures, displaying long range orientational and/or positional molecular order similar to a crystal. We synthesize and investigate the organizational behavior of a variety of electroactive liquid crystalline systems.
Edge Transfer Lithography
We are developing simple and general methods to organize molecular and inorganic materials at the nanometer level. Edge Transfer lithography (ETL) is used for large area patterning of self-assembled monolayers. These patterned SAMs can be used for the guided assembly of molecular and nanoparticle materials.
