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

Electronic transport properties of single-molecule junctions have been widely measured by
several techniques, including mechanically controllable break junctions, electromigration …

The use of single molecules in electronics represents the next limit of miniaturisation of
electronic devices, which would enable us to continue the trend of aggressive downscaling …

Molecular junctions, where single molecules are bound to metal or semiconductor
electrodes, represent a unique architecture to investigate molecules in a distinct …

Decorating two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials with nanoparticles provides an effective
method to integrate their physicochemical properties. In this work, we present the …

We present a brief pedagogical review of theoretical Green's function methods applicable to
open quantum systems out of equilibrium, in general, and single molecule junctions, in …

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in noble metal nanoparticles and nanostructures offers
an efficient means to transport and localize the energy of light into some nanoscale space …
