A molecular rotor driven by an electric field on graphene
Wanxing Lin, Xiaobo Li, Yan-Ling Zhao
We propose a scheme for driving a dipolar molecular rotor to rotate continuously by applying an external electric field: the dipolar rotor is fixed on a graphene sheet via a metal…

Intramolecular Torque, an Indicator of the Internal Rotation Direction of Rotor Molecules and Similar Systems
Rui-Qin Zhang, Yan-Ling Zhao, Fei Qi +2
Torque is ubiquitous in many molecular systems, including collisions, chemical reactions, vibrations, electronic excitations and especially rotor molecules. We present a straightfo…
