Molecular electronics is an important field for the application of nanotechnologies with an
ultimate goal of building functional devices using single molecules or molecular arrays to …

In this work, we report a systematic study on the global and local aromaticity of acenes using
a series of model structures from 2-acene to 11-acene. A recently developed ansatz, an …

The single‐molecule conductance of a series of BN‐acene‐like derivatives has been
measured by using scanning tunneling break‐junction techniques. A strategic design of the …

D-π-A-based dyes find a wide range of applications in molecular electronics and
photovoltaics in general and dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) in particular. We speculated …

Here, we report a new on-surface synthetic strategy to precisely introduce five-membered
units into conjugated polymers from specifically designed precursor molecules that give rise …

Some of the most promising materials for application in molecular electronics and
spintronics are based on diradical chains. Herein, the proposed relation between increasing …

Hitherto, only molecular wires with a regular ohmic behavior in which the electric
conductance decreases with the wire length have been synthesized. Implementation of …

Expanded porphyrin systems are capable of binding a variety of substrates due to their
increased cavity size and aromatic nature, holding important applications as magnetic …

An extraordinary new family of molecular junctions, inaccurately referred to as “anti-Ohmic”
wires in the recent literature, has been proposed based on theoretical predictions. The …

A model is presented herein for the evaluation of stored charge and energy in molecular-
scale capacitors composed of parallel nanosheets. In this model, the nanocapacitor is …
