In view of the relevance of organic thin layers in many fields, the fundamentals, growth
mechanisms, and dynamics of thin organic layers, in particular thiol-based self-assembled …

In this review, possibilities to modify intentionally the electronic transport properties of
metal/molecule/metal devices (MMM devices) are discussed. Here especially the influence …

A challenge in molecular electronics is to control the strength of the molecule–electrode
coupling to optimize device performance. Here we show that non-covalent contacts between …

This Article compares the ability of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiolates
with ferrocene (Fc) head groups (SC11Fc), and SAMs of alkanethiolates lacking the Fc …

This paper describes a method of fabrication that generates small arrays of tunneling
junctions based on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs); these junctions have liquid-metal …

This paper proposes a mechanism for the rectification of current by self-assembled
monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiolates with Fc head groups (SC11Fc) in SAM-based …

This paper describes a molecular diode with high, statistically robust, rectification ratios R of
1.1× 103. These diodes operate with a new mechanism of charge transport based on …

Solid-state molecular tunnel junctions are often assumed to operate in the Landauer regime,
which describes essentially activationless coherent tunnelling processes. In solution, on the …

This paper describes the performance of junctions based on self-assembled monolayers
(SAMs) as the functional element of a half-wave rectifier (a simple circuit that converts, or …

Tracking various chemical reactions, including electrochemical and photochemical reactions
at the single-molecule level, is expected to yield a great deal of knowledge from both …
