The widespread use of molecular machines in biology has long suggested that great
rewards could come from bridging the gap between synthetic molecular systems and the …

Porphyrins and other tetrapyrrole macrocycles possess an impressive variety of functional
properties that have been exploited in natural and artificial systems. Different metal centres …

The concept of using single molecules as key building blocks for logic gates, diodes and
transistors to perform basic functions of digital electronic devices at the molecular scale has …

The widespread use of controlled molecular‐level motion in key natural processes suggests
that great rewards could come from bridging the gap between the present generation of …

The bistability in the position of the two hydrogen atoms in the inner cavity of single free-
base naphthalocyanine molecules constitutes a two-level system that was manipulated and …

The development of a variety of nanoscale applications, requires the fabrication and control
of atomic,, or molecular switches, that can be reversibly operated by light, a short-range …

The design of artificial molecular machines,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, often takes inspiration from
macroscopic machines,,,,,,. However, the parallels between the two systems are often only …

We demonstrate that a single brain-neuron-extracted microtubule is a memory-switching
element, whose hysteresis loss is nearly zero. Our study shows how a memory-state forms in …

We calculate that significant quantum interference effects can be observed in elastic electron
transport through acyclic molecules. Interference features are evident in the transmission …

The fundamental physical and chemical phenomena that can occur at interfaces between
conjugated organic molecules and metal surfaces are discussed. The adsorption strength of …
