Synopsis

In the last decade, much progress has been made in these materials. This book presents a highly coherent coverage of supramolecular, photosensitive and electroactive materials, namely those that have been extensively investigated for applications in fields of electronic and photonic technologies. This extensive reference provides broad coverage of on different types of materials, their processing, spectroscopic characterization, physical properties and device applications.

The implications reach from molecular recognition in synthetic and natural complexes to exciting new applications in chemical technologies, materials, nanostructures, functional materials, new generation catalysts, signal transducers, medical and biomedical applications and novel separation techniques. All these applications rely on supramolecular properties such as molecular recognition, molecular information, and tailored molecular assemblies.

This book is aimed to present a highly coherent coverage of supramolecular, photosenstive and electroactive materials and their applications in electronic and photonic technologies. The research behind these materials constitute some of the most actively pursued fields of science.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

This book is aimed to present a highly coherent coverage of supramolecular photosenstive and electroactive materials and their applications in
electronic and photonic technologies. The research behind these materials consititute some of the most actively pursued fields of science. The
implications reach from molecular recognition in synthetic and natural complexes to exciting new applications in chemical technologies, materials,
nanostructures, functional materials, new generation catalysts, signal transducers, medical and biomedical applications and novel separation
techniques. All these applications rely on supramolecular properties such as molecular recognition, molecular information, and tailored molecular assemblies.

The different topics covered in this book include synthesis, supramolecular organization and optical properties of phthalocyanines, sandwich-type phthalocyaninato and porphyrinato metal complexes, electronic properties of molecular organic semiconductor thin films, polydiacetylenes, structural and optical properties of conjugated molecules in perhydrotriphenylene and other channel forming inclusion compounds, charge transport properties of photosynthetic and respiratory proteins, optical and electronic properties of carbon nitride, polyimides
for microelectronics and tribology, frequency dispersion phenomena in electronic materials, electroactive and photoactive dendrimers and
electrical properties of organic monolayer films.

This book covers a broad spectrum of supramolecular electronic and photonic materials and their device applications. This reference should be a valuable resource to scientists, graduate and upper level graduate students
working in such fields adn industries as organic chemistry, materials science, solid state physics, biotechnology, electrical and electronic engineering, optical engineering, microelectronics,tribology, information technology and semiconductors.|This book is aimed to present a highly coherent coverage of supramolecular photosenstive and electroactive materials and their applications in
