Rectifying Properties of Oligo(Phenylene Ethynylene) Heterometallic Molecular Junctions: Molecular Length and Side Group Effects
The rectifying properties of α,ω-dithiol terminated oligo(phenylene ethynylene) molecules sandwiched between heterometallic electrodes, including the molecular length and side group effects, are theoretically investigated using the fully self-consistent nonequilibrium Green's function method combined with density functional theory. The results show nonlinear variation with changes in molecule l...
متن کاملThe Electrical Measurement of Molecular Junctions
We present the investigation of the electrical transport of metal/(organic molecule or monolayer)/metal junctions. Utilizing a novel mechanically controllable break junction to form a statically stable system, we have self-assembled molecules of benzene1,4-dithiol onto two facing gold electrodes allowing for direct observation of charge transport through the molecules. Current-voltage I(V) meas...
متن کاملControlling the structural and electrical properties of diacid oligo(phenylene ethynylene) Langmuir-Blodgett films.
The preparation, characterization and electrical properties of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films composed of a symmetrically substituted oligomeric phenylene ethynylene derivative, namely, 4,4'-[1,4-phenylenebis(ethyne-2,1-diyl)]dibenzoic acid (OPE2A), are described. Analysis of the surface pressure versus area per molecule isotherms and Brewster angle microscopy reveal that good-quality Langmuir (L...
متن کاملElectrical conductance of molecular junctions by a robust statistical analysis.
We propose an objective and robust method to extract the electrical conductance of single molecules connected to metal electrodes from a set of measured conductance data. Our method roots in the physics of tunneling and is tested on octanedithiol using mechanically controllable break junctions. The single molecule conductance values can be deduced without the need for data selection.
متن کاملEnhanced Functions of Electrical Junctions
Electrical synapses and synchrony are nearly synonymous. In this issue of Neuron, Vervaeke et al. broaden this longstanding association. They found that in the Golgi cell network of the cerebellum, electrical synapses synchronize resting activity, and cause surround inhibition and desynchronization in response to excitatory input.
