Electrical molecular switch addressed by chemical stimuli
H. Audi, Y. Viero, N. Alwhaibi +12
We demonstrate that the conductance switching of benzo-bis(imidazole) molecules upon protonation depends on the lateral functional groups. The protonated H-substituted molecule sho…
A New Photomechanical Molecular Switch Based on a Linear π-Conjugated System
S. Lenfant, Y. Viero, C. Krzeminski +8
We report the electronic transport properties of a new photo-addressable molecular switch. The switching process relies on a new concept based on linear π-conjugated dynamic system…
High Conductance Ratio in Molecular Optical Switching of Functionalized Nanoparticle Self-Assembled Nanodevices
Yannick Viero, Guillaume Copie, David Guerin +4
Self-assembled functionalized nano particles are at the focus of a number of potential applications, in particular for molecular scale electronics devices. Here we perform experime…
Optical absorption of silicon nanowires
Tao Xu, Yannick Lambert, Christophe Krzeminski +6
We report on simulations and measurements of the optical absorption of silicon nanowires (NWs) versus their diameter. We first address the simulation of the optical absorption base…
Anisotropic Vapor HF etching of silicon dioxide for Si microstructure release
Vikram Passi, Ulf Sodervall, Bengt Nilsson +6
Damages are created in a sacrificial layer of silicon dioxide by ion implantation to enhance the etch rate of silicon-dioxide in liquid and vapor phase hydrofluoric acid. The etch…
Adsorption behavior of conjugated {C}3-oligomers on Si(100) and HOPG surfaces
G. Mahieu, Bruno Grandidier, Didier Stiévenard +4
A pi-conjugated {C}3h-oligomer involving three dithienylethylene branches bridged at the meta positions of a central benzenic core has been synthesized and deposited either on the…
