Abstract
Electronic transport characteristics through a single phenalenyl molecule sandwiched between two metallic electrodes are investigated by the use of Green's function technique. A parametric approach, based on the tight-binding model, is used to study the transport characteristics through such molecular bridge system. The electronic transport properties are significantly influenced by (a) the molecule-to-electrode interface structure and (b) the molecule-to-electrode coupling strength.
