We review charge transport across molecular monolayers, which is central to molecular
electronics (MolEl), using large-area junctions (NmJ). We strive to provide a wide conceptual …

Molecular electronic devices with tunable conductance states show great potential in
building memories and logic components for next-generation circuits. In recent years …

Gold–thiol contacts are ubiquitous across the physical and biological sciences in connecting
organic molecules to surfaces. When thiols bind to gold in self-assembled monolayers …

The dielectric function of silver is a fundamental quantity related to its electronic structure
and describes its optical properties. However, results published over the past six decades …

Metallic nanostructures with nanometer gaps support hybrid plasmonic modes with an
extremely small mode volume and strong local field intensity, which constitutes an attractive …

Herein we describe the formation of conformal electrodes from the fluid metal eutectic, Ga–In
(which we abbreviate “EGaIn” and pronounce “e-gain”; 75% Ga, 25% In by weight, mp …

Analysis of rates of tunneling across self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of n-
alkanethiolates SC n (with n= number of carbon atoms) incorporated in junctions having …

An ultimate goal of molecular electronics, which seeks to incorporate molecular components
into electronic circuit units, is to generate functional molecular electronic devices using …

Understanding the mechanism of catalytic hydrogenation at the local environment requires
chemical and topographic information involving catalytic sites, active hydrogen species, and …

We report a versatile water-based method for transferring nanostructures onto surfaces of
various shapes and compositions. The transfer occurs through the intercalation of a layer of …
