متن کاملSimultaneous determination of conductance and thermopower of single molecule junctions.
We report the first concurrent determination of conductance (G) and thermopower (S) of single-molecule junctions via direct measurement of electrical and thermoelectric currents using a scanning tunneling microscope-based break-junction technique. We explore several amine-Au and pyridine-Au linked molecules that are predicted to conduct through either the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOM...
متن کاملConductance and geometry of pyridine-linked single-molecule junctions.
We have measured the conductance and characterized molecule-electrode binding geometries of four pyridine-terminated molecules by elongating and then compressing gold point contacts in a solution of molecules. We have found that all pyridine-terminated molecules exhibit bistable conductance signatures, signifying that the nature of the pyridine-gold bond allows two distinct conductance states t...
متن کاملSimultaneous Measurement of Force and Conductance Across Single Molecule Junctions
Measurement of electronics and mechanics of single molecules provides a fundamental understanding of conductance as well as bonding at the atomic scale. To study the mechanics at these length scales, we have built a conducting atomic force microscope (AFM) optimized for high displacement and force resolution. Here, we simultaneously measure conductance and force across single Au-molecule-Au jun...
متن کاملPlasmon-Induced Conductance Enhancement in Single-Molecule Junctions
The effect of surface plasmons on the conductance of singlemolecule junctions is studied using a squeezable break junction setup. We show that the conductance of 2,7-diaminofluorene single-molecule junctions can be enhanced upon laser irradiation. Our experimental approach enables us to show that this enhancement is due to the plasmon-induced oscillating field within the nanoscale metal gap of ...
