A metadielectric composite oligomeric organic material according to the formulae: ( D )p`-[ C ]-( A )q` or ( D )p`-[C]-( D )q` wherein C is a linear chain oligomeric polarizable core, wherein the linear chain oligomeric polarizable core possesses at least two different monomers with differing electron affinity, and the different monomers are positioned such that an electron affinity gradient is present, and there is either at least one electron-donor group or electron-rich monomer, D, and at least one electron-acceptor group or electron-poor monomer, A, or electron-donor group or electron-rich monomer, D, attached at each end of the oligomeric polarizable core, p' and q' represent the number of electron-donor and electron-acceptor groups present, respectively, and are any integer greater than zero, and at least one resistive insulating group is covalently attached to the molecular structure at any location. |
