We demonstrate an organic memory-transistor device based on a pentacene-gold nanoparticles active layer. Gold (Au) nanoparticles are immobilized on the gate dielectric (silicon dioxide) of a pentacene transistor by an amino-terminated self-assembled monolayer. Under the application of writing and erasing pulses on the gate, large threshold voltage shift (22 V) and on/off drain current ratio of ~3E4 are obtained. The hole field-effect mobility of the transistor is similar in the on and off states (less than a factor 2). Charge retention times up to 4500 s are observed. The memory effect is mainly attributed to the Au nanoparticles.

The 1/f noise in pentacene thin film transistors has been measured as a function of device thickness from well above the effective conduction channel thickness to only two conducting layers. Over the entire thickness range, the spectral noise form is
1/f, and the noise parameter varies as (gate voltage)-1, confirming that the noise is due to mobility fluctuations, even in the thinnest films. Hooges parameter varies as an inverse power-law with conductivity for all film thicknesses. The magnitude and transport characteristics of the spectral noise are well explained in terms of percolative effects arising from the grain boundary structure.
Pentacenequinone (PnQ) impurities have been introduced into a pentacene source material at number densities from 0.001 to 0.474 to quantify the relative effects of impurity content and grain boundary structure on transport in pentacene thin-film tran
sistors. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electrical measurements of top-contact pentacene thin-film transistors have been employed to directly correlate initial structure and final film structures, with the device mobility as a function of added impurity content. The results reveal a factor four decrease in mobility without significant changes in film morphology for source PnQ number fractions below ~0.008. For these low concentrations, the impurity thus directly influences transport, either as homogeneously distributed defects or by concentration at the otherwise-unchanged grain boundaries. For larger impurity concentrations, the continuing strong decrease in mobility is correlated with decreasing grain size, indicating an impurity-induced increase in the nucleation of grains during early stages of film growth.
The practical use of nanoparticle superlattices (NPSLs) which are of great interest as materials with designed functionalities is often limited by their lack of structural stability under various utilization conditions. Here, we report a new method f
or directly synthesizing NPSL fully embedded in hierarchically porous silica which provides exceptional stability and efficient pathways for reactant molecules, making the NPSL highly efficient catalyst. The superlattices made of 12 nm gold nanoparticles exhibit exceptionally high catalytic activity for CO oxidation at low temperature, showing higher activity than that of small gold nanoparticles (ca. 3 nm) supported on metal oxides. The gold NPSL also shows unprecedented stability, maintaining its structural stability and catalytic activity without any signature of degradation over a month of continuous catalytic reaction, which present one significant step forward to realizing the great potentials of gold catalysts in automotive emission control and green chemistry industry.
We have performed a series of measurements on the low temperature behavior of a magnetic nano-particle system. Our results show striking memory effects in the dc magnetization. Dipolar interactions among the nano-particles {em suppress} the memory ef
fect. We explain this phenomenon by the superposition of different super paramagnetic relaxation times of single domain magnetic nano- particles. Moreover, we observe a crossover in the temperature dependence of coercivity. We show that a dilute dispersion of particles with a flat size distribution yields the best memory.
In this paper, we have tried to find out the origin of magnetism in Gold nanoparticles (Au- NPs). We observe that upon incorporating Gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) in Fe3O4 nanoparticle medium the net magnetisation increases compared to the pure Fe3O4 n
anoparticle medium. This increase of magnetization can be attributed to the large orbital magnetic moment formation at the Au/magnetic particle interface indicating that magnetism observed in Au-NPs is an interfacial effect. This interfacial effect has been supported by the observation of sudden transition from positive saturated magnetisation to a negative diamagnetic contribution as a function of magnetic field on citrate coated gold Au-NPs.
