Usage

Description

4,5-Dicyano-2-aminoimidazole is an organic compound with the chemical formula C4H2N6. It is characterized by the presence of two cyano groups (-CN) at the 4 and 5 positions and an amino group (-NH2) at the 2 position of the imidazole ring. 4,5-Dicyano-2-aminoimidazole has potential applications in various fields due to its unique chemical properties.

Uses

Used in Organic Electronics Industry:
4,5-Dicyano-2-aminoimidazole is used as a key component in the fabrication of organic electrical bistable devices. These devices consist of a thin metal layer embedded within the organic material, which can be fabricated using a vacuum evaporation method. 4,5-Dicyano-2-aminoimidazole's unique electronic properties make it suitable for creating devices with the nominal layer structure of organic/metal-nanocluster/organic interposed between two electrodes.
