Abstract

A new tetraazatetracene derivative, 2,3-[4,4'-bis(N,N-diphenylamino)benzyl]-5,12-bis[(triisopropylsilyl)ethynyl]-1,4,6,11-tetraazatetracene (TPAs-BTTT), displays rewritable multilevel memory behavior, which is probably induced by multielectron intramolecular charge transfer (CT).

Keywords: charge transfer; donor-acceptor systems; electrochemistry; heteroacenes; multilevel memory.
