Abstract

The understanding of electronic transport through a single molecule is an interesting scientific challenge, which became experimentally addressable only very recently. This interest is further enhanced by the possibility of building electronic devices with molecules, a vision often referred to as “molecular electronics”.[1] Tunnel currents through molecular films have been studied on surfaces with STM [2] or with electrode pairs provided by crossed ...
