Project A8: Organic Molecular Building Blocks for the Synthesis of Internal Interfaces
Principle Investigator: Prof. Dr. Ulrich Koert (Marburg, Dept. of Chemistry), Prof. Dr. Michael Dürr (Gießen, Inst. of Appl. Physics)
Summary
The central aim of this project is the chemical synthesis of organic
molecules which are employed for building organic-inorganic internal
interfaces of highest quality for further investigation within the CRC.
The contact of the organic phase to the inorganic/semiconductor
interface is intended via aromatic π-interaction or by covalent bonding
(e.g. cycloaddition).
In part A novel fluoro-substituted (aza)pentacene and DNTT derivatives
will be synthesized and their packing motif will be characterized by
X-ray analysis. Organic-[inorganic/semiconductor] interfaces prepared
from the novel (aza)pentacenes and DNTTs will be characterized in
collaboration with the physics groups.
In part B, well-ordered multilayers will be generated on Si(001).
Based on the chemoselective reactivity of functionalized cyclooctynes
on Si(001) as demonstrated in the first funding period, second and
third layer attachment will be realized employing azide/alkyne
reactions.
