The conductance of a single metal-molecule-metal junction depends critically on the conformations of the molecule. In the simple case of a biphenyl, two phenyl rings linked together by a single C-C bond, the conductance is expected to…
We explore electron transport through a moebius strip attached to two metallic electrodes by the use of Green's function technique. A parametric approach is used based on the tight-binding model to characterize the electron transport…
We explore spin dependent transport through a magnetic quantum wire which is attached to two non-magnetic metallic electrodes. We adopt a simple tight-binding Hamiltonian to describe the model where the quantum wire is attached to two…
Conjugated molecules are materials which are widely studied and developed for molecular electronic technologies focusing on single molecule devices. In this paper we observed the molecular conductance of single molecule based on n phenyl…
We investigate electron transport through a mono-atomic wire which is tunnel coupled to two electrodes and also to the underlying substrate. The setup is modeled by a tight-binding Hamiltonian and can be realized with a scanning tunnel…
We theoretically analyzed inelastic effects in the electron transport through molecular junctions originating from electron-vibron interactions. The molecular bridge was simulated by a periodic chain of identical interacting hydrogen-like…
Quantum transport through single molecules is essentially affected by molecular vibrations. We investigate the behavior of the prototype single-level model with intermediate electron-vibron coupling and arbitrary coupling to the leads. We…
Recently, rectifying direction inversion has been observed in dipyrimidinyl-diphenyl (PMPH) diblock molecular wire [J. Am. Chem. Soc. (2005) 127, 10456], and a protonation mechanism was suggested to explain this interesting phenomena. In…

The molecular states of conduction electrons in laterally coupled quantum rings are investigated theoretically. The states are shown to have a distinct magnetic field dependence, which gives rise to periodic fluctuations of the tunnel…
