Understanding Molecular Conduction
Online Presentations | 08 Jul 2004 | Contributor(s):: Supriyo Datta
It is common to differentiate between two ways of building a nanodevice: a topdown approach where we start from something big and chisel out what we want and abottom-up approach where we start from something small like atoms or molecules andassemble what we want. When it comes to describing...
