Dendritic Polynuclear Metal Complexes with Made-to-Order Luminescent and Redox Properties

  • Chapter

Abstract

The current strategy to pursue regarding the miniaturization of electronic components is based on a “large-downward” approach.1 Further miniaturization, however, as well as the development of a variety of molecular machines,2 will require a “small-upward” approach based on the assembly of functionally integrated building blocks into structurally organized arrays.3–17 Supramolecular chemistry has shown that molecular components can indeed be assembled to give species of nanometric dimensions. This bridge from molecules to materials is most promising and will certainly be the object of extensive research in the near future.
