Facilely and efficiently tuning metal–organic nanostructures of a charge-transfer complex based on a water controlled nanoreaction and the chemistry of 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ)

Abstract: Metal-organic charge-transfer complexes based on 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) have received considerable attention because of their unique solid-state physical properties for potential applications in nanoscale opto-electronic devices. To address the challenge in preparing novel metal-TCNQ (MTCNQ) nanostructures, here we introduce a facile and efficient way for synthesizing MTCNQ, taking Ni[TCNQ]2(H2O)2 as an example. By finely tuning the amount of water added into TCNQ solution, well-ordered and la… Show more

“…1D nanostructures of a metal‐organic charge transfer complex containing different metal ions and the same acceptor (TCNQ) were also reported in the past year. Well‐ordered Ni[TCNQ] 2 (H 2 O) 2 nanostructures were self‐assembled and tuned with the amount of water added into the TCNQ/acetonitrile solution . Alkali metal TCNQs such as LiTCNQ, NaTCNQ and KTCNQ 1D nanowire arrays were self‐assembled into 3D cotton textile for wearable electronics in a low temperature vapor deposition method and showed good gas sensor performance …”

“…The molecule is thereby reduced to the stable radical anion and forms needle-shaped crystallites with the positively charged metal ion. [1][2][3][4][5][6] Cu-TCNQ and Ag-TCNQ are the most prominent representatives of this class of materials: both materials have been intensely studied due to their exceptional electrical, magnetic and optical properties. Among these, the electrically bistable resistivity switching is of specific interest in moleculebased electronics, as the intrinsic resistivity of the naturally semiconducting materials can be electrically switched at a certain threshold voltage.…”
