Molecular Electronics: electron, spin and thermal transport through molecules

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2021-11-23 v1

Abstract

This review presents recent results on the physics of electron transport in molecular devices. The review is organized as follows. A brief description of molecular junction (MJ) technology is first given followed by an introduction to the basic physics of electron transport through MJs from DC to about 20 GHz. Then, several sections review selected results on spin-dependent transport, plasmonics, quantum interferences, thermal transport and electronic noise in ME devices.
