Nanoscale molecular-switch crossbar circuits
Molecular electronics offer an alternative pathway to construct nanoscale circuits in which the critical dimension is naturally associated with molecular sizes. We describe the fabrication and testing of nanoscale molecular-electronic circuits that comprise a molecular monolayer of [2]rotaxanes sandwiched between metal nanowires to form an 8 × 8 crossbar within a 1 μm2 area. The resistance at e...
متن کاملMechanical Switch Circuits for VLSI Applications
Due to transistor leakage, CMOS circuits have a well-defined lower limit on their achievable energy efficiency [1]. Once this limit is reached, power-constrained applications will face a cap on their maximum throughput independent of their level of parallelism. Avoiding this roadblock requires an alternate switching device with steeper sub-threshold slope—i.e., lower VDD/Ion for the same Ion/Io...
متن کاملΔFosB: a Molecular Switch for Reward
ΔFosB is a member of the Fos family of transcription factors. While all other family members are induced rapidly but transiently in response to a host of acute stimuli, ΔFosB is unique in that it accumulates in response to repeated stimulation due to its unusual protein stability. Such a prolonged induction of ΔFosB, within the brain’s reward regions, has been implicated in animal models of dru...
متن کاملMolecular magnetic switch for a metallofullerene
The endohedral fullerenes lead to well-protected internal species by the fullerene cages, and even highly reactive radicals can be stabilized. However, the manipulation of the magnetic properties of these radicals from outside remains challenging. Here we report a system of a paramagnetic metallofullerene Sc3C2@C80 connected to a nitroxide radical, to achieve the remote control of the magnetic ...
متن کاملA push-button molecular switch.
The preparation, characterization, and switching mechanism of a unique single-station mechanically switchable hetero[2]catenane are reported. The facile synthesis utilizing a "threading-followed-by-clipping" protocol features Cu(2+)-catalyzed Eglinton coupling as a mild and efficient route to the tetrathiafulvalene-based catenane in high yield. The resulting mechanically interlocked molecule op...
