- Abstract
- In recent, many researchers have applied functional organic rectifying molecules for molecular logic gate and switching molecules for molecular memory device by using a method of self-assembled monolayer (SAM). We have been worked on a development of 3x3 molecular AND/OR logic gates. To implement the molecular logic gates, we synthesized rectifying molecules having high rectification ratio and fabricated 3x3 array device with 9 nano-pores whose diameter is about 100-140nm. Finally, we can successfully implement the AND/OR logic gates. In addition, we have worked on a fabrication of molecular memory device. To implement single organic monolayer device in the vertical structure of metal-molecule-metal electrode, it is required to solve fundamental problems, that is, an electrical short. A yield of the molecular device using self assembled single monolayer is less than 5 % even in nano-pore device. For the realization of molecular memory device using single monolayer, we introduce new way by using organic conducting electrode. The yield of the newly developed molecular device is 50-60%, which is improved over 10 times.
