Abstract

How does electricity flow through a single molecule In the past molecular electronics has promised much and delivered little in part because of instability and irreproducibility The ability to make nanogaps in graphene has opened up new possibilities for making and studying transistors consisting of a gated single molecule Particularly significant effects occur when the charge couples to vibrational modes and when there are quantum interference effects References Graphene porphyrin single molecule transistors Nanoscale 7 13181 13185 2015 J A Mol C S Lau W J M Lewis H Sadeghi C Roche A Cnossen J H Warner C J Lambert H L Anderson and G A D Briggs Redox dependent Franck Condon blockade and avalanche transport in a graphene fullerene nanoelectromechanical oscillator Nano Lett 16 170 176 2015 C S Lau H Sadeghi G Rogers S Sangtarash P Dallas K Porfyrakis J H Warner C J Lambert G A D Briggs and J A Mol Quantum interference in graphene nanoconstrictions Nano Lett 16 4210 4216 2016 P Gehring H Sadegh S Sangtarash C S Lau J Liu A Ardavan J H Warner C J Lambert G A D Briggs and J A Mol Resonant optomechanics with a vibrating carbon nanotube and a radio frequency cavity Phys Rev Lett 117 170801 2016 N Ares T Pei A Mavalankar M Mergenthaler J H Warner G A D Briggs and E A Laird Selected as a PRL Editors Suggestion
