The semiconductor industry has seen a remarkable miniaturization trend, driven by many
scientific and technological innovations. But if this trend is to continue, and provide ever …

Carbon nanotube (CNT) devices and electronics are achieving maturity and directly
competing or surpassing devices that use conventional materials. CNTs have demonstrated …

Attempts to infer DNA electron transfer from fluorescence quenching measurements,,,,,,,, on
DNA strands doped with donor and acceptor molecules have spurred intense debate, over …

This is the report of a DOE-sponsored workshop organized to discuss the status of our
understanding of charge-transfer processes on the nanoscale and to identify research and …

A simple yet highly reproducible method to fabricate metallic electrodes with nanometer
separation is presented. The fabrication is achieved by passing a large electrical current …

For molecular electronics, one needs the ability to electrically address a single conducting
molecule. We report on the fabrication of stable Pt electrodes with a spacing down to 4 nm …

The success, growth, and virtually limitless applications of nanotechnology depend upon our
ability to manipulate nanoscale objects, which in turn depends upon developing new …

We report a technique for fabricating metallic electrodes on insulating substrates with
separations on the 1 nm scale. The fabrication technique, which combines lithographic and …

Charge migration along DNA molecules has attracted scientific interest for over half a
century. Reports on possible high rates of charge transfer between donor and acceptor …

Using gold electrodes lithographically fabricated onto microscope cover slips, DNA and
proteins are interrogated both optically (through fluorescence) and electronically (through …
