Thin Film Resistance Gating by Redox Charge Exchange: Evidence for a Quantum Transition State.
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces 2024 May 7
Field effect transistors (FETs) and related devices have enabled tremendous advances in electronics, as well as studies of fundamental phenomena. FETs are classically actuated as fields charge/discharge materials, thereby modifying their resistance. Here, we develop charge exchange transistors (CETs) that comprise thin films whose resistance is modified by quantum charge exchange processes, e.g., redox and bonding. We first use CETs to probe the metallocene-thin film interaction during cyclic voltammetry. Remarkably, CETs reveal transient resistance peaks associated with charge transfer during both oxidation and reduction. Our data combined with kinetics and density functional theory modeling are consistent with a multistep redox pathway, including the formation/destruction of a quantum transition state that overlaps molecule + thin film band states. As a further proof-of-principle demonstration, we also use CETs to monitor n -alkanethiol self-assembly on thin Au films in real-time. CETs exhibit monotonic resistance increase consistent with previously reported fast-then-slow kinetics attributed to thiol-thin film bond formation (charge localization) and etching and/or molecule reorganization.
