Abstract
The present invention relates to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-based compounds, for a molecular electronic device, enabling molecular rectification, and molecular electronic devices comprising a molecular layer formed by means of the compounds self-assembled on an electrode. The compounds according to the present invention can realize rectifying properties by being introduced between electrodes and thus enable a high rectification ratio by means of low voltage driving, and thus can be substituted for a silicon-based diode device and, more particularly, can be utilized for a wearable device, Bluetooth, an IoT enabling device and the like which require low voltage driving.
