Oligo (arylene ethynylene)(OAE) derivatives are the “workhorse” molecules of molecular
electronics. Their ease of synthesis and flexibility of functionalisation mean that a diverse …

Based on the powerful concept of embedded dipole self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs),
highly conductive interfacial layers are designed, which allow tuning the contact resistance …

Using a representative model system, here electronic and structural properties of aromatic
self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) are described that contain an embedded, dipolar group …

Understanding of the electric transport through surface-anchored metal–organic frameworks
(SURMOFs) is important both from a fundamental perspective as well as with regards to …

In the past, nanoporous metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have been mostly studied for
their huge potential with regard to gas storage and separation. More recently, the discovery …

It is expected that molecular electronics, ie, the use of molecules as critical functional
elements in electronic devices, will lead in the near future to an industrial exploitable novel …

We studied charge tunneling rates across the single-component and binary self-assembling
monolayers (SAMs) composed of 4-methyl-4′-mercaptobiphenyl (CH3-BPT) and 4 …

Electrostatic effects in charge transport across the molecular framework, including those
imposed by halogen atoms, have recently attracted noticeable attention of the molecular …

A series of single-component and binary SAMs composed of non-substituted (H-BPT) and
fluorine-substituted (F-BPT) mercaptobiphenyls on Au (111) was studied in the context of …

Molecular diodes usually exhibit fixed current values at a specific bias and achieve sizable
rectification ratio (RR) at voltages of≈ 1.0 V. Here, a series of custom‐designed molecular …
