Possible performance improvement in [2]catenane molecular electronic switches [PDF]
, 2006 Mechanically interlocked bistable supramolecular complexes are promising candidates of molecular electronics. Applying a multiscale computational approach, here we study the coherent charge transport properties of catenane monolayers sandwiched between ...

The role of contacts in molecular electronics [PDF]
, 2002 Molecular electronic devices are the upmost destiny of the miniaturization trend of electronic components. Although not yet reproducible on large scale, molecular devices are since recently subject of intense studies both experimentally and theoretically,

Negative differential conductance in two-dimensional C-functionalized boronitrene
New Journal of Physics, 2015 It recently has been demonstrated that the large band gap of boronitrene can be significantly reduced by C functionalization. We show that specific defect configurations even can result in metallicity, raising interest in the material for electronic ...

Measuring Single-Molecule Conductance at An Ultra-Low Molecular Concentration in Vacuum
Micromachines, 2018 We report on systematic investigation of single-molecule detection mechanisms in break junction experiments in vacuum. We found molecular feature in the conductance traces at an extremely low concentration of molecules of 10 nM.

Inelastic scattering and local heating in atomic gold wires [PDF]
, 2004 We present a method for including inelastic scattering in a first-principles density-functional computational scheme for molecular electronics. As an application, we study two geometries of four-atom gold wires corresponding to two different values of ...

Solvent-mediated conductance increase of dodecanethiol-stabilized gold nanoparticle monolayers
Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2016 Gold nanoparticle monolayers provide convenient templates to study charge transport in organic molecules beyond single junction techniques. Conductance is reported to increase by several orders of magnitude following immersion of alkanethiol-stabilized ...

Sub-unit cell layer-by-layer growth of Fe3O4, MgO, and Sr2RuO4 thin films
, 2002 The use of oxide materials in oxide electronics requires their controlled epitaxial growth. Recently, it was shown that Reflection High Energy Electron Diffraction (RHEED) allows to monitor the growth of oxide thin films even at high oxygen pressure ...
