<p>The present invention relates to molecules exhibiting rectifying properties. In particular, the present invention relates to a molecular rectifying assembly, comprising the general structure METAL 1 -CON 1 -BRIDGE-CON 2 -METAL 2 in which CON 1 and CON 2 are a connecting group or connecting part and independently of each other are molecular groups bound to METAL 1,2 in such a way that an adsorbate state with an energy close to the Fermi energy of the metal is formed at one or both of the METAL 1,2 /CON 1,2 interfaces, METAL is selected from metals and/or alloys of metals, and BRIDGE is the core of the molecule, consisting of pi-conjugated and non-conjugated parts. Furthermore, the present invention relates to uses of said molecular rectifying assembly or the production of electronic devices where molecules are placed between at least two electrodes.</p> |
