We have carried out the systematic study of quantum capacitance (C$_Q$) in functionalized graphene. The functionlization of graphene has been done by doping with different aliphatic and aromatic molecules and their radicals. Using density…
Quantum interference is investigated within the complex quantum Hamilton-Jacobi formalism. As shown in a previous work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 250401 (2009)], complex quantum trajectories display helical wrapping around stagnation tubes and…
Destructive quantum interference in electron transport through molecules provides an unconventional route for suppressing electric current. In this work we introduce "interference vectors" for each interference and use them to characterize…
In our theoretical study in which we combine a nonequilibrium Green's function (NEGF) approach with density functional theory (DFT) we investigate branched compounds containing Ru or Os metal complexes in two branches, which due to their…
We report on a quantum form of electronic flicker noise in nanoscale conductors that contains valuable information on quantum transport. This noise is experimentally identified in atomic and molecular junctions, and theoretically analyzed…
As the dimensions of a conductor approach the nano-scale, quantum effects will begin to dominate its behavior. This entails the exciting possibility of controlling the conductance of a device by direct manipulation of the electron wave…
Mean-field molecular dynamics based on path integrals is used to approximate canonical quantum observables for particle systems consisting of nuclei and electrons. A computational bottleneck is the sampling from the Gibbs density of the…
We have carried out first-principles calculations on electronic properties of graphene quantum dots embedded in hexagonal boron nitride monolayer sheets. The calculations with density functional theory show that the band gaps of quantum…
We investigate the electronic transport behavior of Fano-Anderson (FA) systems, consisting of a one-dimensional finite backbone chain and an attached side-group of varying length. The tight-binding model within the non-equilibrium Green's…
We look for manifestations of quantum interference effects in the Seebeck coefficient of a molecular junction, when the electronic conductance exhibits pronounced destructive interference features due to the presence of quasi-degenerate…
The realization of self-assembled molecular-electronic films, whose room-temperature transport properties are controlled by quantum interference (QI), is an essential step in the scale-up QI effects from single molecules to parallel arrays…
Recent observations of destructive quantum interference in single-molecule junctions confirm the role played by quantum effects in the electronic conductance properties of molecular systems. We show here that the destructive interference…
We study electron transport properties of some molecular wires and a unconventional disordered thin film within the tight-binding framework using Green's function technique. We show that electron transport is significantly affected by…
The exploring and understanding the electronic properties of molecules connected to metallic leads is a vital part of nanoscience if molecule is to have a future. This thesis documents a study for various families of organic and…
Estimating the relative alignment between the frontier molecular orbitals that dominates the charge transport through single-molecule junctions represents a challenge for theory. This requires approaches beyond the widely employed framework…
Quantum networking can be realized by distributing pairs of entangled qubits between remote quantum processing nodes. Devoted communication qubits within each node can naturally interface with photons which bus quantum information between…
Quantum transport is strongly influenced by interference with phase relations that depend sensitively on the scattering medium. Since even small changes in the geometry of the medium can turn constructive interference to destructive, a…
Recent experiments by Venkatamaran {\em et al.} [Nature (London) {\bf 442}, 904 (2006)] on a series of molecular wires with varying chemical compositions, revealed a linear dependence of the conductance on $\mathrm{cos}^2\theta$, where…
The geometry-dependent energy transfer rate from an electrically pumped inorganic semiconductor quantum well into an organic molecular layer is studied theoretically. We focus on F\"orster-type nonradiative excitation transfer between the…
Destructive quantum interference in single molecule electronics is an intriguing phe- nomenon; however, distinguishing quantum interference effects from generically low transmission is not trivial. In this paper, we discuss how quantum…
