Abstract:
1. A method of making a field effect transistor, comprising: forming a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of bifuncitonal molecules, which acts as a channel material, between a pair of electrodes; and forming the pair of electrodes and the SAM of bifunctional molecules above an insulating layer, wherein said SAM comprises bifunctional molecules comprising at least one of a trichlorosilane, a dialkylchlorosilane, an allyldialkylsilane, a trialkoxysilane, a carboxylic acid, a phosphonic acid, a hydroxamic acids, an amine, and a hydroxyl functionality, which covalently bond to the insulating layer, and wherein each of the bifunctional molecules comprises a functionality at a first end, which covalently bonds to the insulating layer, and an end-cap functionality at a second end, which includes a conjugated bond.
