BS-MS Dual Degree in Chemistry
Mentor Prof. Thiruvancheril G Gopakumar, Molecular Functional Materials Research Group, Dept. of Chemistry, IIT Kanpur
POSTERWe worked on developing an ultra-thin molecular film using drop casting method where dopants are introduced at specific ligand sites. We formed semi-conducting SMONs with metals on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface at ambient conditions. Also Analyzed the Conductive AFM on the Surface of Two ferrocene (Fc) functionalized molecules, 3-ferrocenyl propanoic acid (FcC3) and 5-ferrocenyl pentadienoic acid (FcC5) or TCPBA (1,2,4,5- Tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) benzene). Used Igor Pro, Agilent AFM, WSxM5,& Origin.
