Abstract
We obtained three conducting crystals based on a
[ Fe
III(Pc)(CN)
2] molecular unit. All crystals showed a large
anisotropic negative magnetoresistance arising from the
-d interaction
self-contained in the [ Fe
III(Pc)(CN)
2] unit. The anisotropy is
attributable to the anisotropic
g-tensor in the [ Fe
III(Pc)(CN)
2]
unit. We also obtained a thin film containing [ Fe
II(Pc)(CN)
2] . The
film exhibits photocurrent response for the UV irradiation. These features
suggest [ M(Pc)(CN)
2] molecular unit is a well-designed one for a
building block of molecular devices.
Key words. Molecular electronics - phthalocyanine -
-d
system - thin film.
