Creating functional electrical circuits using individual or ensemble molecules, often termed
as “molecular-scale electronics”, not only meets the increasing technical demands of the …

Advances in high-resolution and spin-resolved scanning tunnelling microscopy, as well as
atomic-scale manipulation, have enabled the bottom-up, atom-by-atom creation and …

This fully revised, updated and reorganised third edition provides a thorough introduction to
the characterisation techniques used in surface science and nanoscience today. Each …

Transport of electrons in a single molecule junction is the simplest problem in the general
subject area of molecular electronics. In the past few years, this area has been extended to …

We review the fascinating research on charge transport through switchable molecules. In the
past decade, detailed investigations have been performed on a great variety of molecular …

The ability to probe individual atoms and molecules have made it possible to reveal
properties which otherwise would be hidden in the study of an ensemble of atoms and …

Application of the field-effect transistor principle to novel materials to achieve electrostatic
doping is a relatively new research area. It may provide the opportunity to bring about …

We describe a first-principles method for calculating electronic structure, vibrational modes
and frequencies, electron-phonon couplings, and inelastic electron transport properties of …

The present topical review focuses on recent advances concerning an intriguing
phenomenon in condensed matter physics, the scattering of conduction electrons at the …

Recent progress in the measurement and modeling of transport in molecular junctions has
been very significant. Tunnel transport in the Landauer–Imry regime is now broadly …
