Tokyo Institute of Technology research: Antiaromatic molecule displays record electrical conductance
(Tokyo, 19 July 2017) Researchers demonstrate high electrical conductance for an antiaromatic nickel complex — an order of magnitude higher than for a similar aromatic complex. Since the conductance is also tunable by electrochemical gating, antiaromatic complexes are promising materials for future electronic devices.
Organic materials often have a lower production cost than traditional electric conductors like metals and semiconductors....
