ABSTRACTWe are investigating organometallic materials which exhibit a novel fieldinduced reversible switching phenomenon. Silver and copper salts of tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) and its derivatives, prepared as polycrystalline thick films and vacuum-deposited thin films, have been imaged using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). We have recently produced images with molecular resolution of these materials. We also have demonstrated a field-induced, charge-transfer reaction driven by the electric field at the STM tip when the field generated by the STM exceeds the switching threshold of the organic charge-transfer complex. The phase transition induced by the STM tip appears as nanometer to micrometer-sized domains on the metal-TCNQ and derivatives surface. This STM-induced chemical reaction is being explored for use in a molecular-based information storage system.
