Electronic excitation and electric field as switching mechanism for a single-molecule switch

نویسندگان

چکیده

DFT calculations show that a combination of an electric field and electronic excitation is promising mechanism to force molecular switch based on amino-imino tautomerisation into one its two states. By calculating the effect in direction moving hydrogen shape barrier ground low-lying excited states previously proposed switches consisting 5- 7-membered rings with adjacent amino imino groups, we demonstrate fields photons experimentally accessible ranges introduce sufficient asymmetry push desired configuration. Excitation inverted order preferred geometry allows reversible switching without reversal field.

An electric field induced reversible single-molecule fluorescence switch.

We report that by applying an electric field to a single squaraine-derived rotaxane (SR) molecule on bare glass, the fluorescence can be completely quenched. The molecule undergoes a reversible fluorescence switch between a zero-field "on" state and a high-field "off" state, which is attributed to intramolecular electron transfer within the SR molecule.

Electric field breakdown in single molecule junctions.

Here we study the stability and rupture of molecular junctions under high voltage bias at the single molecule/single bond level using the scanning tunneling microscope-based break-junction technique. We synthesize carbon-, silicon-, and germanium-based molecular wires terminated by aurophilic linker groups and study how the molecular backbone and linker group affect the probability of voltage-i...

Single-switch soft-switching electronic ballast with high input power factor - Electric Power Applications, IEE Proceedings-

Design and analysis of a new singleswitch soft-switching class-E electronic ballast with high input power factor is presented. Design equations for the optimum operating condition are derived and complete computer analysis performed. It is shown that low duty-cycle control of the class-E ballast can reduce the voltage stress of the controlled switch. A 40-W fluorescent lamp ballast is implement...

Dipolar molecules inside C70: an electric field-driven room-temperature single-molecule switch.

We propose a two-state electric field-driven room-temperature single-molecule switch based on a dipolar molecule enclosed inside ellipsoidal fullerene C70. We show that the two low-energy minima of the molecular dipole inside the C70 cage provide distinguishable molecular states of the system that can be switched by application of an external electric field.

Functionalization of the Single-walled Carbon Nanotubes by Sulfur Dioxide and Electric Field Effect, a Theoretical Study on the Mechanism

In this study, kinetics and mechanism of the sulfur dioxide adsorption on the single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT) are investigated. Three single-walled carbon nanotubes, including the armchair (6,6), chiral (6,5) and zigzag (6,0) CNTs were chosen as the models and the different orientations of SO2 molecule relative to the CNT axis were considered. The B3LYP functional within the 6-3...
