Electron Phase Detection in Single Molecules by Interferometry
Zhixin Chen, Jie-Ren Deng, Mengyun Wang +7
Interferometry has underpinned a century of discoveries, ranging from the disproval of the ether theory to the detection of gravitational waves, offering insights into wave dynamic…
Quantum Interference Enhances the Performance of Single-Molecule Transistors
Zhixin Chen, Iain M. Grace, Steffen L. Woltering +9
An unresolved challenge facing electronics at a few-nm scale is that resistive channels start leaking due to quantum tunneling. This affects the performance of nanoscale transistor…
Non-equilibrium thermodynamics in a single-molecule quantum system
E. Pyurbeeva, J. O. Thomas, J. A. Mol
Thermodynamic probes can be used to deduce microscopic internal dynamics of nanoscale quantum systems. Several direct entropy measurement protocols based on charge transport measur…
Phase-Coherent Charge Transport through a Porphyrin Nanoribbon
Zhixin Chen, Jie-Ren Deng, Songjun Hou +9
Quantum interference in nano-electronic devices could lead to reduced-energy computing and efficient thermoelectric energy harvesting. When devices are shrunk down to the molecular…
Charge-state dependent vibrational relaxation in a single-molecule junction
Xinya Bian, Zhixin Chen, Jakub K. Sowa +8
The interplay between nuclear and electronic degrees of freedom strongly influences molecular charge transport. Herein, we report on transport through a porphyrin dimer molecule, w…
Single-electron transport in a molecular Hubbard dimer
James O. Thomas, Jakub K. Sowa, Bart Limburg +9
Many-body electron interactions are at the heart of chemistry and solid-state physics. Understanding these interactions is crucial for the development of molecular-scale quantum an…
Understanding resonant charge transport through weakly coupled single-molecule junctions
James O. Thomas, Bart Limburg, Jakub K. Sowa +6
Off-resonant charge transport through molecular junctions has been extensively studied since the advent of single-molecule electronics and it is now well understood within the fram…
