Theory of Chirality Induced Spin Selectivity: Progress and Challenges

Ferdinand Evers, Amnon Aharony, Nir Bar-Gill +19

We provide a critical overview of the theory of the chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect, i.e., phenomena in which the chirality of molecular species imparts significan…

Unsupervised feature recognition in single molecule break junction data

A. Magyarkuti, N. Balogh, Z. Balogh +2

Single-molecule break junction measurements deliver a huge number of conductance vs.\ electrode separation traces. Along such measurements the target molecules may bind to the elec…

Impact of electrode density of states on transport through pyridine-linked single molecule junctions

Olgun Adak, Richard Korytár, Andrew Y. Joe +2

We study the impact of electrode band structure on transport through single-molecule junctions by measuring the conductance of pyridine-based molecules using Ag and Au electrodes.…

Breakdown of Interference Rules in Azulene, a Non-Alternant Hydrocarbon

Jianlong Xia, Brian Capozzi, Sujun Wei +8

We have designed and synthesized five azulene derivatives containing gold- binding groups at different points of connectivity within the azulene core to probe the effects of quantu…

Adsorption-Induced Solvent-Based Electrostatic Gating of Charge Transport through Molecular Junctions

Michele Kotiuga, Pierre Darancet, Carlos R. Arroyo +2

Recent experiments have shown that transport properties of molecular-scale devices can be reversibly altered by the surrounding solvent. Here, we use a combination of first-princip…

Quantitative Current-Voltage Characteristics in Molecular Junctions from First Principles

Pierre Darancet, Jonathan R. Widawsky, Hyoung Joon Choi +2

Using self-energy-corrected density functional theory (DFT) and a coherent scattering-state approach, we explain current-voltage (IV) measurements of four pyridine-Au and amine-Au…
