title: The non-covalent assembly of benzene-bridged metallosalphen dimers: photoconductive tapes with large carrier mobility and spatially distinctive conduction anisotropy.
abstract: A newly synthesized benzene-bridged metallosalphen dimer tailored with aliphatic chains is demonstrated for the solution-processed assembly of a pi-electronic tape, which shows a large intrinsic carrier mobility, is spatially anisotropic in conduction, forms p- or n-type semiconductors tunable upon doping, is photoconductive and is capable of repetitive switching with large on-off ratios.
