The role of contacts in molecular electronics
G. Cuniberti, F. Grossmann, R. Gutierrez
Molecular electronic devices are the upmost destiny of the miniaturization trend of electronic components. Although not yet reproducible on large scale, molecular devices are since…
A pure-carbon ring transistor: The role of topology and structure
G. Cuniberti, J. Yi, M. Porto
We report results on the rectification properties of a carbon nanotube (CNT) ring transistor, contacted by CNT leads, whose novel features have been recently communicated by Watana…
Fingerprints of mesoscopic leads in the conductance of a molecular wire
G. Cuniberti, G. Fagas, K. Richter
The influence of contacts on linear transport through a molecular wire attached to mesoscopic tubule leads is studied. It is shown that low dimensional leads, such as carbon nanotu…
A molecular wire sandwiched between nanotube leads: analytic results for the conductance
G. Cuniberti, G. Fagas, K. Richter
Analytic results for the conductance of a molecular wire attached to mesoscopic tubule leads are obtained. They permit to study linear transport in presence of low dimensional lead…
