Deriving highly oriented organic nanofibers and ternary memory performance via salification-induced effects

Chem Commun (Camb). 2018 Sep 18;54(75):10610-10613. doi: 10.1039/c8cc04112a.

Abstract

A novel pyridine-based organic conjugated molecule (NCPy) has been successfully synthesized and converted into an organic pyridinium salt (NCPy-salt). Highly oriented organic nanofibers and high-quality films were obtained by transforming the molecule to a salt form. This transformation also resulted in a unique ternary resistive switching memory behavior.
