Photon assisted-inversion of majority charge carriers in molecular semiconductor-based organic heterojunctions
International audience; Ambipolar molecular materials hold great promises as a building block of next generation highly efficient, less complex and low cost electronics devices. In this endeavor, the present work reports the fabrication of organic heterojunction devices based on halogenated copper Phthalocyanines (CuPc) and lutetium bisphthalocyanine (LuPc2) bilayer, investigates their structural and electrical properties and probes the ambipolar behavior by ammonia sensing. Microstructural analysis of the heterostructure thin films revealed compact and semicrystalline organization, depending on the number of halogen substituents in CuPc. The heterojunction devices reveal a non-linear I(V) …

p -Type and n -type conductometric behaviors of octachloro-metallophthalocyanine-based heterojunctions, the key role of the metal
In the present work, we determined the electrical properties of octachlorinated metallophthalocyanines with Co(II) and Cu(II) ions as metal centers. We engaged them in heterojunctions, with lutetium bisphthalocyanine as a partner. Surprisingly, cobalt and copper complexes show opposite behaviors, the first being an [Formula: see text]-type material whereas the latter is a [Formula: see text]-type material, as deduced from the response of the heterojunctions towards ammonia; showing the unusual key role played by the metal center. While the LuPc[Formula: see text]/Cu(Cl[Formula: see text]Pc) complex exhibits a negative response to ammonia, the LuPc[Formula: see text]/Co(Cl[Formula: see text…
On the interest of ambipolar materials for gas sensing
International audience; Based on the electrochemical properties of a series of metallophthalocyanines this article shows that the phthalocyanine bearing four alkoxy groups and twelve fluorine atoms behaves approximately as those with eight fluorine atoms. This indicates that the electron-donating effect of one alkoxy group balances the electro-withdrawing effect of one fluorine atom. We engaged three metallophthalocyanines, namely the octafluoro copper phthalocyanine, Cu(F8Pc), an octaester metallophthalocyanine and a phthalocyanine bearing four alkoxy groups and twelve fluorine atoms, Zn(T4F12Pc), in building original conductometric transducers that are Molecular Semiconductor – Doped Insu…
