Cognitive ability experiment with photosensitive organic molecular thin films.
We present an optical experiment which permits us to evaluate the information exchange necessary to self-induce cooperatively a well-organized pattern in a randomly activated molecular assembly. A low-power coherent beam carrying polarization and wavelength information is used to organize a surface relief grating on a photochromic polymer thin film which is photoactivated by a powerful incohere...
متن کاملNanomechanical properties of molecular organic thin films
Using atomic force microscopy we have studied the nanomechanical response to nanoindentations of surfaces of highly oriented molecular organic thin films (thickness<1000 nm). The Young’s modulus E can be estimated from the elastic deformation using Hertzian mechanics. For the quasi-one-dimensional metal tetrathiafulvalene tetracyanoquinodimethane E;20 GPa and for the a phase of the p-nitropheny...
متن کاملCorrelating Electron Transport and Molecular Structure in Organic Thin Films**
Understanding how electrons travel through organic matter is important in designing materials for organic microelectronics[1] and understanding biological electron-transport processes.[2, 3] Herein we describe a simple experimental procedure to measure rates of electron transport across organic thin films having a range of structures, compare the data for several types of films, and outline a t...
متن کاملOrganic Molecular Thin Films on Device-relevant Substrates
Title of dissertation: ORGANIC MOLECULAR THIN FILMS ON DEVICE-RELEVANT SUBSTRATES Michelle A. Groce, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Dissertation directed by: Professor Theodore L. Einstein Department of Physics Organic thin films are central to many cutting-edge electronic devices. Improving our understanding of the characteristics of thin films is important not only to the development of condensed...
متن کاملLack of thermodynamic equilibrium in conjugated organic molecular thin films
We show that the observation by photoemission spectroscopy of a finite density of occupied states at the Fermi-level on a film of a conjugated organic material ~para-sexiphenyl! in which alkali metal atoms have been intercalated does not necessarily imply metallicity nor the presence of negative polarons ~radical anions!. The combination of ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy and Kelvin prob...
