Abstract

A multifunctional integrated platform based on conjugated oligomers containing novel triarylamine (TAA) and fluorene units with responding to voltage, light and explosives stimuli and performing for sensors, detectors, memory media and high contrast displays was designed, and the stimuli-responsive mechanisms were studied. These oligomers show excellent thermal stability with no significant weight loss below 350 °C in nitrogen atmosphere. During the electrochemical reoxidation process, the oligomer films exhibit two pairs of obvious redox peaks with the strong color changes from yellowish of neutral state to green and blue of oxidized state, and remain good continuous cyclic stability over 500s with a cycle time of 10s. The electrofluorescent properties of the oligomers also can be tuned by electrochemistry redox, exhibiting high contrast. Meanwhile, non-volatile rewritable flash memory devices were produced with the sandwich structure ITO/oligomer/Al, which could gain the ON/OFF current ratio as high as about 104 at low threshold voltage of 1.2 V.
