Interaction effects in electric transport through self-assembled molecular monolayers
We theoretically investigate the effect of intermolecular Coulomb interactions on transport through selfassembled molecular monolayers (or other devices based on a large number of nanoscale conductors connected in parallel). Due to the interactions, the current through different molecules become correlated, resulting in distinct features in the nonlinear current-voltage characteristics, as we s...
متن کاملElectron transport through thin organic films in metal--insulator--metal junctions based on self-assembled monolayers.
This paper describes an experimentally simple system for measuring rates of electron transport across organic thin films having a range of molecular structures. The system uses a metal--insulator--metal junction based on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs); it is particularly easy to assemble. The junction consists of a SAM supported on a silver film (Ag-SAM(1)) in contact with a second SAM suppor...
متن کاملElectron tunnelling in self-assembled monolayers
A review on the mechanisms and characterization methods of electronic transport through self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) is presented. Using SAMs of alkanethiols in a nanometre scale device structure, tunnelling is unambiguously demonstrated as the main intrinsic conduction mechanism for defect-free large bandgap SAMs, exhibiting well-known temperature and length dependences. Inelastic electron...
متن کاملElectronic transport in self-assembled alkanethiol monolayers
Electron tunneling through self-assembled monolayers of alkanethiols is investigated. Temperature-dependent current– voltage measurements are performed to distinguish between di erent conduction mechanisms. Temperature-independent electron transport is observed, proving direct tunneling as the dominant conduction mechanism of alkanethiols. An exponential dependence of tunneling current on molec...
متن کاملCharge transport through self-assembled monolayers of compounds of interest in molecular electronics.
The electrical properties of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on metal surfaces have been explored for a series of molecules to address the relation between the behavior of a molecule and its structure. We probed interfacial electron transfer processes, particularly those involving unoccupied states, of SAMs of thiolates or arylates on Au by using shear force-based scanning probe microscopy (SP...
