The electrostatic potential profile along a biased molecular wire: A model quantum mechanical calculation
Stéphane Pleutin, Hermann Grabert, Gert-Ludwig Ingold +1
We study the electrostatic potential of a molecular wire bridging two metallic electrodes in the limit of weak contacts. With the use of a tight-binding model including a fully thr…
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…
Incoherent charge transport through molecular wires: interplay of Coulomb interaction and wire population
Jörg Lehmann, Gert-Ludwig Ingold, Peter Hänggi
The influence of Coulomb interaction on the electron transport through molecular wires is studied in the regime of incoherent tunneling. In the limit of strong Coulomb repulsion, t…
