Abstract: The redox behavior of [Zn(dmit)2]2- and its electrodeposited film were investigated by cyclic voltammetry, and the Ⅰ-Ⅴ properties of the electrodeposited film were measured. The results show that [Zn(dmit)2]2- possesses good redox switch properties which exhibit good repeatability. It could be considered as a new material for molecular switch and memory.
