Although unimolecular electronics are already a laboratory reality, the variation in the arrangement of the molecule within a molecular junction from measurement to measurement is considerable. Consequently, controlling the precise geometry at the molecule–metal contacts is a long-standing and largely unresolved challenge. Here, a strategy to fabricate uniform unimolecular junctions distributed in a regular pattern is reported. A monolayer of zinc metalloporphyrins, peripherally functionalised by bulky dendrons, is used to provide a well-defined array of molecular binding sites with precise spatial distribution. The dendrons are then photochemically cross-linked to form a robust base-layer. Parallel, uniformly-spaced unimolecular structures are subsequently assembled on these binding sites through a layer-by-layer (LbL) strategy. This LbL strategy proceeds through coordination of an α,ω-amino functionalised oligo(phenylene)ethynylene (OPE) molecule to the zinc ions of the metalloporphyrin template base-layer. The structure is then extended through alternating self-assembled layers of (cross-linked) zinc porphyrin and OPE. The coordination interaction between the zinc(II) sites and the bifunctional OPE wire ensures a high degree of registry between the layers and good electrical contact through the extended arrays and offer fine control over the chemical composition. | Versión del editor: | https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mtchem.2022.101067 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/280165 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.mtchem.2022.101067 | E-ISSN: | 2468-5194 |
