Photochromic Molecules for Photoswitching Units in Molecular Optoelectronics

In molecular electronics, photochromic compounds are considered to be promising candidates for photoswitching units. In diarylethenes (DAEs) the connectivity of pi-system changes significantly by irradiation of light. Based on this idea, the photoswitching of exchange interaction and molecular conductance through DAE molecule has been achieved by our group. Drain-current switching of DAE-channel organic field-effect transistors with light- and electric-field effects will also be presented. With respect to the arrangement of DAE molecules, high sensitive photochemical control of the assembly using high cooperative system at two-dimensional solid/liquid interface will be presented.
