The field of single-molecule electronics harnesses expertise from engineering, physics and
chemistry to realize circuit elements at the limit of miniaturization; it is a subfield of …

Conspectus This Account provides an overview of our recent efforts to uncover the
fundamental charge transport properties of Si–Si and Ge–Ge single bonds and introduce …

A novel and unusual palladium‐catalyzed [4+ 2] annulation of cyclopropenes with
benzosilacyclobutanes is reported. This reaction occurred through chemoselective Si− C …

The electronic band structure of a material can acquire interesting topological properties in
the presence of a magnetic field or as a result of the spin–orbit coupling,,. We study …

The understanding of the charge transport through single molecule junctions is a
prerequisite for the design and building of electronic circuits based on single molecule …

Silacyclobutanes (SCB), a family of useful organosilicon compounds, have attracted much
attention because the highly strained silicon-carbon bond can be activated, as evidenced by …

The development of next-generation organic electronic materials critically relies on
understanding structure-function relationships in conjugated polymers. However, unlocking …

We report on the chemical design of chiral molecular junctions with stress‐dependent
conductance, whose helicity is maintained during the stretching of a single molecule …

We report a dual metal-catalyzed method for the cross-coupling of unprotected alcohols by
exploiting the β-Si effect. This deoxygenative Suzuki-Miyaura reaction tolerates a range of …

We describe the synthesis as well as the optical and charge‐transport properties of a series
of donor–acceptor (D‐A) ladder‐type heteroacenes. These molecules are stable, soluble …
