Length-dependent Conductance of conjugated molecular junctions
Molecular junction is a promising candidate for devices nowadays, especially the conjugated molecule with much higher conductance compared to sigma bond alkanes. The decay constant β, which describes the length-dependent conductance, is one of the most important parameters in molecular junctions. To investigate the decay constant, we introduce the exponential dependence first, and then explain ...
متن کاملConductance of single cobalt chalcogenide cluster junctions.
Understanding the electrical properties of semiconducting quantum dot devices have been limited due to the variability of their size/composition and the chemistry of ligand/electrode binding. Furthermore, to probe their electrical conduction properties and its dependence on ligand/electrode binding, measurements must be carried out at the single dot/cluster level. Herein we report scanning tunn...
متن کاملCarbon nanotube junctions and devices Carbon nanotube junctions and devices
Carbon nanotubes are molecules entirely made of carbon atoms. Owing to their special shape, they are extremely stiff but also very flexible. The electronic properties are determined by the exact symmetry of the nanotube lattice, resulting in either metallic or semiconducting behavior. Due to their small diameter, electronic motion is directed in the length direction of the nanotube, making them...
متن کاملA Mechanism for Conductance Switching in Carbon-Based Molecular Electronic Junctions
A molecular junction formed by a 10-15 Å organic monolayer between carbon and mercury contacts exhibited conductance switching for several monolayer structures. When the carbon potential was scanned to a sufficiently negative voltage relative to the mercury, the junction resistance suddenly decreased by at least an order of magnitude, and high resistance could be restored by a positive voltage ...
متن کاملMolecular rectification and conductance switching in carbon-based molecular junctions by structural rearrangement accompanying electron injection.
Molecular junctions were fabricated consisting of a 3.7 nm thick layer of nitroazobenzene (NAB) molecules between a pyrolyzed photoresist substrate (PPF) and a titanium top contact which was protected from oxidation by a layer of gold. Raman spectroscopy, XPS, and AFM revealed that the NAB layer was 2-3 molecules thick and was bonded to the two conducting contacts by C-C and N-Ti covalent bonds...
