Current induced light emission and light induced current in molecular tunneling junctions
Michael Galperin, Abraham Nitzan
The interaction of metal-molecule-metal junctions with light is considered within a simple generic model. We show, for the first time, that light induced current in unbiased juncti…
Asymmetric Electron Transmission across Asymmetric Alkanethiol Bilayer Junctions
Michael Galperin, Abraham Nitzan, Slawomir Sek +1
Asymmetric i/V curves with respect to the polarity of the voltage bias were observed in the Hg-Au junctions containing bilayers of alkanethiols of different chain length. Larger cu…
On the electrostatic potential profile in biased molecular wires
Abraham Nitzan, Michael Galperin, Gert-Ludwig Ingold +1
The potential profile across a biased molecular junction is calculated within the framework of a simple Thomas-Fermi type screening model. In particular, the relationship between t…
Traversal times for resonant tunneling
Uri Peskin, Michael Galperin, Abraham Nitzan
The tunneling time of particle through given barrier is commonly defined in terms of "internal clocks" which effectively measure the interaction time with internal degrees of freed…
