摘要
Arrays of low-dimensional molecular crystals of square columns(1-D)and nanolamellae(2-D)of Zn[TCNQ]_(2)(H_(2)O)_(2)with large areas(up to 1020 cm^(2))have been synthesized by controlled addition of water to Zn and TCNQ.Based on the ability to accurately control the reaction,a new moisture and water indicator has been developed.The simple method,the large areas of material prepared,the fine size tuning,and the typical semiconductor behavior of the resulting low-dimensional molecular materials promise applications in molecular electronics as well as nanoelectronics.The system is an effective indicator for the detection of traces of water and moisture.
