A neutral naphthalene diimide [2]rotaxane.

TL;DR: Both dynamic NMR spectroscopy and electrochemical investigations have been employed in an attempt to shed light on both geometrical reorganization and redox-switching processes that are occurring or can be induced within the [2]rotaxane.

Supramolecular chemistry of donor–acceptor interactions

TL;DR: In this article, a review of donor-acceptor interactions and their applications in the construction of functional supramolecular architectures is presented, including light harvesting systems, mechanically interlocked molecules and donor chromophores.

The Story of the Little Blue Box: A Tribute to Siegfried Hünig

TL;DR: The tetracationic cyclophane, cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene), also known as the little blue box, constitutes a modular receptor that has facilitated the discovery of many host-guest complexes and mechanically interlocked molecules during the past 35 years as mentioned in this paper .

A [2]Catenane-Based Solid State Electronically Reconfigurable Switch

TL;DR: In this paper, a solid state, electronically addressable, bistable [2]catenane-based molecular switching device was fabricated from a single monolayer of the [2]-Catenane, anchored with phospholipid counterions, and sandwiched between an n-type polycrystalline silicon bottom electrode and a metallic top electrode.

A 160-kilobit molecular electronic memory patterned at 10 11 bits per square centimetre

TL;DR: A 160,000-bit molecular electronic memory circuit, fabricated at a density of 1011 bits cm-2 (pitch 33 nm; memory cell size 0.0011 μm2), that is, roughly analogous to the dimensions of a DRAM circuit projected to be available by 2020.
Journal ArticleDOI

A chemically and electrochemically switchable molecular shuttle

TL;DR: In this paper, a rotaxane is synthesized that can be reversibly switched between two states by proton concentration changes or by electrochemical means using 1H NMR and ultra violet/visible spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Linear artificial molecular muscles

TL;DR: Two switchable, palindromically constituted bistable [3]rotaxanes have been designed and synthesized with a pair of mechanically mobile rings encircling a single dumbbell, supporting the hypothesis that the cumulative nanoscale movements within surface-bound molecular muscles can be harnessed to perform larger-scale mechanical work.
