TY - CONF A1 - Roth, C. A1 - Schalley, C. A. A1 - Unger, Wolfgang T1 - Incorporating mechanically interlocked molecules into crystalline coordination networks on surfaces: Electro-active SURMOFs to translate molecular switching into macroscopic function and devices N2 - We aim at preparing, characterising, and applying SURMOFs incorporating electro-active and -switchable mechanically interlocked molecules such as rotaxanes as the basis of functional devices. Preparation and Positioning Synthesis, purification and analytical characterization of electro-switchable rotaxanes suitable for SURMOF-formation as well as Layer-by-Layer assembly on surfaces. Controlled deposition of electro-active SURMOFs and Layer-by-Layer self-assembled multilayers based on these switchable rotaxanes. Construction of SURMOFs on micro-patterned surfaces. Structural Characterisation and Physico-Chemical Properties Electrochemical characterization of these rotaxanes in solution with cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and impedance spectroscopy. Surface characterization of SURMOFs and multilayers with XPS, NEXAFS, AFM, contact-angle measurements, transmission UV/Vis, ToF-SIMS and – in cooperation with partners from SPP – XRD. Development of ToF-SIMS (also assisted by Principle Component Analysis of the fragment-ion data) as a method for imaging and depth-profiling. Development of an appropriate electrochemical cell to perform cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and impedance spectroscopy with SURMOFS and multilayers as working electrodes in a three-electrode cell. Comparison of the structural and electrochemical properties of the redox-active unit in solution, multilayers and SURMOF focusing on the advantages of SURMOFs. System Integration and Function Demonstration Examination of the usability of the electroactive SURMOFS as optoelectronic switch or data storage device with a focus on the robustness of the system. Usage of the SURMOFs as functional electrodes for electrochemical application. Selective switching of ordered nanostructures to translate molecular motion to macroscopic property changes.
