Single-molecule circuits with group 8 metallocenes are formed without additional linker
groups in scanning tunneling microscope-based break junction (STMBJ) measurements at …

The rational design of single-molecule electrical components requires a deep and predictive
understanding of structure–function relationships. Here, we explore the relationship …

Besides active, functional molecular building blocks such as diodes or switches, passive
components, for example, molecular wires, are required to realize molecular-scale …

Understanding electron transport across π− π-stacked systems will help to answer
fundamental questions about biochemical redox processes and benefit the design of new …

Metal complexes are receiving increased attention as molecular wires in fundamental
studies of the transport properties of metal| molecule| metal junctions. In this context we …

We measure electronic conductance through single conjugated molecules bonded to Au
metal electrodes with direct Au–C covalent bonds using the scanning tunneling microscope …

We study the effects of molecular structure on the electronic transport and mechanical
stability of single-molecule junctions formed with Au point contacts. Two types of linear …

Charge transport across metal–molecule interfaces has an important role in organic
electronics. Typically, chemical link groups such as thiols or amines are used to bind organic …

Molecular wires, molecular structures that transfer charge between two active sites, have
been the focus of recent research as potential candidates for components in molecular …

Electrical conductance across a molecular junction is strongly determined by the anchoring
group of the molecule. Here we highlight the unusual behavior of 1, 4-bis (1H-pyrazol-4 …
