C. Gurtner et Mj. Sailor, SELECTIVE CONSTRUCTION OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS USING AN ORGANIC CHARGE-TRANSFER SALT, Advanced materials, 8(11), 1996, pp. 897
The growth and ''pruning'' of electrical connections between two plati
num wires by electrocrystallization of the charge-transfer salt TTFBrx
is reported. Crystals not involved in the connection can be removed b
y electrochemical reduction (see Figure). This method is a step toward
s the fabrication of complex structures without the use of a photolith
ographic or morphologic template.
