Funded Activity Summary

Heteroatomic organometallic molecular wires. This project aims to design strategies for the modular construction of heteroatomic molecular wires. Molecular wires are the smallest possible component for miniaturisation of electronic circuitry: metal atoms joined by a linear conducting chain of carbon atoms. This project addresses the synthetic challenge of designing strategies for the modular construction of unprecedented heteroatomic molecular wires. Unique electro-optical properties may be developed (for switching, sensing, data storage applications) for subsequent applications in molecular electronics industries. Electro-optical properties could be used in molecular electronics industries.
