Scientists in the field of molecular electronics have extensively explored how electrons travel through single molecules of DNA. They’ve shown that A and B configurations of DNA differ in ...

A Georgia Tech physics group has discovered how and why the electrical conductance of metal nanowires changes as their length varies. In a collaborative investigation performed by an experimental team ...

By placing single-atom p-block metal adlayers on gold electrodes, researchers quantified the interfacial hopping integral, ...

Researchers announced today that they have built a nanowire that is 2.6 nanometers long, shows an unusual increase in conductance as the wire length increases, and has quasi-metallic properties. Its ...

Carbynes, or long linear carbon chains (LLCCs), have received significant attention in recent years due to their predicted exceptional properties. However, experimentally, their properties have been ...
