Abstract
Quantum transport properties through single polycyclic hydrocarbon molecules attached to two metallic electrodes are studied by the use of Green's function technique. A parametric approach based on the tight-binding model is introduced to investigate the electronic transport through such molecular bridge systems. The transport properties are discussed in the aspects of (a) molecule-to-electrode coupling strength and (b) quantum interference effect.
