Molecular electronics in junctions with energy disorder
We investigate transport through molecular wires whose energy levels are affected by environmental fluctuations. We assume that the relevant fluctuations are so slow that they, within a tight-binding description, can be described by disordered, Gaussian distributed onsite energies. For long wires, we find that the corresponding current distribution can be rather broad even for a small energy va...
متن کاملTowards graphyne molecular electronics.
α-Graphyne, a carbon-expanded version of graphene ('carbo-graphene') that was recently evidenced as an alternative zero-gap semiconductor, remains a theoretical material. Nevertheless, using specific synthesis methods, molecular units of α-graphyne ('carbo-benzene' macrocycles) can be inserted between two anilinyl (4-NH2-C6H4)-anchoring groups that allow these fragments to form molecular juncti...
متن کاملFoundations of Molecular Electronics — Charge Transport in Molecular Conduction Junctions
The most fundamental structure involved in molecular electronics is a molecular transport junction, consisting of one (ideally) or more molecules extending between two electrodes. These junctions combine the fundamental process of intramolecular electron transfer with the mixing of molecular and continuum levels at the electrodes and the nonequilibrium process of voltage-driven currents. Much o...

electron components have been steadily decreasing in size, while molecular materials have in recent years been found to exhibit many of the properties used in electronics. such developments are giving rise to a new field in which molecular materials are used for electronic applications. molecular electronics offers .
متن کاملMolecular electronics: some views on transport junctions and beyond.
The field of molecular electronics comprises a fundamental set of issues concerning the electronic response of molecules as parts of a mesoscopic structure and a technology-facing area of science. We will overview some important aspects of these subfields. The most advanced ideas in the field involve the use of molecules as individual logic or memory units and are broadly based on using the qua...
