Molecular zippers – designing a supramolecular system

From Molecules to Materials: Current Trends and Future Directions

The development, characterization, and exploitation of novel materials based on the assembly of molecular components is an exceptionally active and rapidly expanding field. For ...

The injecting energy at molecule/metal interfaces: Implications for conductance of molecular junctions from an <i>ab initio</i> molecular description

To study the electronic transport of molecular wire circuits, we present a time-independent scattering formalism which includes an ab initio description of the molecular electro...

Molecular wire conductance: Electrostatic potential spatial profile

We have studied the effect of the electrostatic potential on the current across a one-dimensional tight-binding molecular wire by solving self-consistently the Poisson and Schrö...
