Polaron formation: Ehrenfest dynamics vs. exact results

Guangqi Li, Bijan Movaghar, Abraham Nitzan +1

We use a 1-dimensional tight binding model with an impurity site characterized by electron-vibration coupling, to describe electron transfer and localization at zero temperature, a…

Single-molecule pulling: phenomenology and interpretation

Ignacio Franco, Mark A. Ratner, George C. Schatz

Single-molecule pulling techniques have emerged as versatile tools for probing the noncovalent forces holding together the secondary and tertiary structure of macromolecules. They…

Chiral molecular films as electron polarizers and polarization modulators

Ernesto Medina, Floralba López, Mark Ratner +1

Recent experiments on electron scattering through molecular films have shown that chiral molecules can be efficient sources of polarized electrons even in the absence of heavy nucl…

Yield of exciton dissociation in a donor-acceptor system

Guangqi Li, Abraham Nitzan, Mark A. Ratner

A simple model is constructed to describe dissociation of charge transfer excitons in bulk heterojunction solar cells, and its dependence on the physical parameters of the system.…

Compensation of Coulomb blocking and energy transfer in the current voltage characteristic of molecular conduction junctions

Guangqi Li, Manmohan S. Shishodia, Boris D. Fainberg +2

We have studied the influence of both exciton effects and Coulomb repulsion on current in molecular nanojunctions. We show that dipolar energy-transfer interactions between the sit…

What makes a complex liquid complex?

Alexander Z. Patashinski, Rafal Orlik, Antoni C. Mitus +2

We view a complex liquid as a network of bonds connecting each particle to its nearest neighbors; the dynamics of this network is a chain of discrete events signaling particles rea…
