Nanoscale electronic devices via templating supramolecular polyelectrolytes (NEDSPE)

该项目涉及单分子模板策略的开发，用于在合成聚电解质（PE）的基础上制造具有特定形状、尺寸和性能的纳米物体。纳米线将通过金属团簇沉积在延伸构象的PE分子上而产生。导电-半导体纳米复合材料将由聚乙烯和导电聚合物碎片组成的嵌段共聚物进行金属化制备。我们计划在单分子水平上开发多种模板方法，通过在同一模板上顺序沉积不同的材料来构建复杂的结构。利用原子力显微镜（AFM）、透射电镜（TEM）和XPS等研究方法对PE分子构象、金属沉积、形貌和结构进行控制。纳米物体的定位和定位将通过PE分子在图案衬底上的选择性吸附来实现。我们计划在开发的纳米器件中研究电子传递。

The project deals with the development of single molecule templating strategy for the fabrication of nanobjects with dedicated shape, size and properties on the base of synthetic polyelectrolytes (PE). Nanowires will be produced via deposition of metal clusters onto the PE molecules in an extended conformation. Conductive-semiconductive nanocomposites will be fabricated by metallization of block copolymers which consist of PE and electroconductive polymer fragments. We plan to develop multiple templating methodology at the single molecule level to built up complicated structures by sequential deposition of different materials onto the same template. Control of PE molecule conformation, metal deposition, morphology and structure of the obtained nanoobjects will be performed using AFM, TEM and XPS methods of investigations. Positioning and addressing of the nanoobjects will be performed via selective adsorption of PE molecules on patterned substrates. We plan to study electron transport in the developed nanodevices.
