Charge transport across insulating self-assembled monolayers: non-equilibrium approaches and modeling to relate current and molecular structure.
This paper examines charge transport by tunneling across a series of electrically insulating molecules with the structure HS(CH2)4CONH(CH2)2R) in the form of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), supported on silver. The molecules examined were studied experimentally by Yoon et al. (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2012, 51, 4658-4661), using junctions of the structure AgS(CH2)4CONH(CH2)2R//Ga2O3/EGaIn. The t...
متن کاملThe Rate of Charge Tunneling Is Insensitive to Polar Terminal Groups in Self-Assembled Monolayers in AgS(CH2)nM(CH2)mT//Ga2O3/EGaIn Junctions
This paper describes a physical-organic study of the effect of uncharged, polar, functional groups on the rate of charge transport by tunneling across selfassembled monolayer (SAM)-based large-area junctions of the form AgS(CH2)nM(CH2)mT//Ga2O3/EGaIn. Here Ag is a template-stripped silver substrate, -Mand -T are “middle” and “terminal” functional groups, and EGaIn is eutectic gallium−indium all...
متن کاملReplacing −CH2CH2− with −CONH− Does Not Significantly Change Rates of Charge Transport through Ag-SAM//Ga2O3/EGaIn Junctions
This paper describes physical-organic studies of charge transport by tunneling through self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), based on systematic variations of the structure of the molecules constituting the SAM. Replacing a −CH2CH2− group with a −CONH− group changes the dipole moment and polarizability of a portion of the molecule and has, in principle, the potential to change the rate of charge tr...
متن کاملThe rate of charge tunneling through self-assembled monolayers is insensitive to many functional group substitutions.
At its conception, the field of molecular electronics promised to provide the ability to engineer the rate of charge transport through the design of the molecular structure of electronic junctions. The hypothesis was that the electronic and geometrical structure of molecules in a junction would have a significant and predictable effect on the rate and mechanism of charge transport through their...
متن کاملTuning the molecular order of C60-based self-assembled monolayers in field-effect transistors.
The control of order in organic semiconductor systems is crucial to achieve desired properties in electronic devices. We have studied the order in fullerene functionalized self-assembled monolayers by mixing the active molecules with supporting alkyl phosphonic acids of different chain length. By adjusting the length of the molecules, structural modifications of the alignment of the C60 head gr...
