title: Fabricating photoswitches and field-effect transistors from self-assembled tetra(2-isopropyl-5-methyphenoxy) copper phthalocyanines nanowires.
abstract: Tetra(2-isopropyl-5-methyphenoxy) copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) nanowires synthesized by a facile, low temperature self-assembled route, were incorporated into nano-devices: photoswitch and organic field-effect transistor. The devices were capable of switching on/off reversibly and fast by turning the 808 nm infrared light on/off. And the carrier mobility micro of CuPc nanowires incorporated in the devices was -0.02 cm2/V x s. The prelimenary results in this study show the potential application of metal phthalocyanine nanowires in low-cost fabrication of nano photo-electric devices.
