    05 Sep 2007 | | Contributor(s):: Jeffrey B. Neaton

    Most recent theoretical studies of electron transport in single-molecule junctions rely on a Landauer approach, simplified to treat electron-electron interactions at a mean-field level within density functional theory (DFT). While this framework has proven relatively accurate for certain systems,...

  6. MCW07 Modeling Charging-based Switching in Molecular Transport Junctions

    23 Aug 2007 | | Contributor(s):: Sina Yeganeh, Misha Galperin, Mark Ratner

    We will discuss several proposed explanations for the switching and negative differential resistance behavior seen in some molecular junctions. It is shown that a proposed polaron model is successful in predicting both hysteresis and NDR behavior, and the model is elaborated with image charge...
