Abstract:
Linear and branched Fe(tpy)(2) complex oligomer wires were quantitatively formed on hydrogen-terminated silicon wafers by means of hydrosilylation of ethynylterpyridine and following stepwise coordination reactions, and the redox property of surface-attached species and its photosensitivity can be controlled by the doping density of the silicon wafers.
