Suspended Gold Nanowires: Ballistic Transport of Electrons
Gold nanowires a few atomic diameters wide are observed by ultra-high vacuum transmission electron microscopy, and their conductance measured simultaneously using a scanning tunneling microscope built into the electron microscope. A strand of gold atoms suspended between electrodes is directly observed to have a conductance of 2e2/h (=(12.9 kΩ)-1), where e is the electron charge and h is Planck...
متن کاملNanocrystalline nanowires: III. Electrons.
Nanocrystalline nanowires (NCNW) are fragments of bulk crystals that are infinite in only one direction and typically have some rotational symmetry around this direction. Electron eigenstates belonging to the symmetry labels (k,m) (wavevector and rotational quantum number) are discussed. The rotational quantum number simplifies discussion of optical properties. For m not equal 0, the +/-m degen...
متن کاملThermally activated charge transport in microbial protein nanowires
The bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens requires the expression of conductive protein filaments or pili to respire extracellular electron acceptors such as iron oxides and uranium and to wire electroactive biofilms, but the contribution of the protein fiber to charge transport has remained elusive. Here we demonstrate efficient long-range charge transport along individual pili purified free of m...
متن کاملMechanism of magnetism in stacked nanographite with open shell electrons
Antiferromagnetism in stacked nanographite is investigated with using the Hubbard-type models. The A-B stacking or the stacking near to that of A-B type is favorable for the hexagonal nanographite with zigzag edges, in order that magnetism appears. Next, we find that the open shell electronic structure can be an origin of the decreasing magnetic moment with the decrease of the inter-graphene di...
متن کاملTuning of magnetism in stacked nanographite with open shell electrons
Magnetism in stacked triangulenes is investigated using the Hubbard-type model with onsite repulsions. We show that the open shell electronic structure can be an origin of the decreasing magnetic moment with adsorption of molecules. Next, possible ferromagnetic solutions are studied, as one of candidates of molecular magnets. Ferromagnetism is stable in regions with large interlayer hoppings an...
