Electronic single-molecule identification of carbohydrate isomers by recognition tunnelling
Carbohydrates are one of the four main building blocks of life, and are categorized as monosaccharides (sugars), oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. Each sugar can exist in two alternative anomers (in which a hydroxy group at C-1 takes different orientations) and each pair of sugars can form different epimers (isomers around the stereocentres connecting the sugars). This leads to a vast combi...
متن کاملA mechanical model of tunnelling
It is shown how the model which was introduced in [1] allows to mimic the quantum tunnelling between two symmetric one-dimensional wells. Following the publication of [1], some readers asked me to provide more details on the concluding remark about tunnelling (first paragraph of § 6). Strictly speaking, tunnelling is a quantum phenomenon that refers to any process that is classically forbidden ...
متن کاملElectrostatic control over temperature-dependent tunnelling across a single-molecule junction
Understanding how the mechanism of charge transport through molecular tunnel junctions depends on temperature is crucial to control electronic function in molecular electronic devices. With just a few systems investigated as a function of bias and temperature so far, thermal effects in molecular tunnel junctions remain poorly understood. Here we report a detailed charge transport study of an in...
متن کاملRoles of vacuum tunnelling and contact mechanics in single-molecule thermopower
Molecular junction is a chemically-defined nanostructure whose discrete electronic states are expected to render enhanced thermoelectric figure of merit suitable for energy-harvesting applications. Here, we report on geometrical dependence of thermoelectricity in metal-molecule-metal structures. We performed simultaneous measurements of the electrical conductance and thermovoltage of aromatic m...
متن کاملElectronic Spectral Line Shape of a Diatomic Molecule
The electronic absorption spectral line shape of a diatomic molecule with harmonic potential curves is calculated using the time correlation function formalism. Both the equilibrium shift and the frequency shift of the two linking electronic states ate taken into account. The spectrum is also calculated using the cumulated expansion which is related to the correlation function of the time-d...
