We investigate electron transport through azulene molecule with four distinct electrode contact geometries using the non-equilibrium Green's function formalism within the tight-binding Hamiltonian. Employing the Q-matrix approach, we…

We have designed and synthesized five azulene derivatives containing gold- binding groups at different points of connectivity within the azulene core to probe the effects of quantum interference through single-molecule conductance…

Quantum interference (QI) in molecular transport junctions can lead to dramatic reductions of the electron transmission at certain energies. In a recent work [Markussen et al., Nano Lett. 2010, 10, 4260] we showed how the presence of such…

Destructive quantum interference (QI) has been a source of interest as a new paradigm for molecular electronics as the electronic conductance is widely dependent on the occurrence or absence of destructive QI effects. In order to interpret…

Since the concepts for the implementation of data storage and logic gates used in conventional electronics cannot be simply downscaled to the level of single molecule devices, new architectural paradigms are needed, where quantum…

Quantum interference in coherent transport through single molecular rings may provide a mechanism to control current in molecular electronics. We investigate its applicability by using a single-particle Green function method combined with…

Quantum interference (QI) effects in molecular junctions may be used to obtain large thermoelectric responses. We study the electrical conductance G and the thermoelec- tric response of a series of molecules featuring a quinoid core using…

Quantum interference, be it destructive or constructive, has a substantial influence on the magnitude of molecular conductance and consequently there is significant interest in predicting these effects. It is commonly thought that…

Using the tight-binding model and the generalized Green's function formalism, the effect of quantum interference on the electron transport through the benzene molecule in a semiconductor/benzene/semiconductor junction is numerically…

Destructive quantum interference (DQI) in single molecule electronics is a purely quantum mechanical effect and entirely defined by inherent properties of the molecule in the junction such as its structure and symmetry. This definition of…

If simple guidelines could be established for understanding how quantum interference (QI) can be exploited to control the flow of electricity through single molecules, then new functional molecules, which exploit room-temperature QI could…

Coherent electronic transport through individual molecules is crucially sensitive to quantum interference. Using exact diagonalization techniques, we investigate the zero-bias and zero-temperature conductance through $\pi$-conjugated…

We study the charge transport properties of triangular quantum dot molecule (TQDM) connected to metallic electrodes, taking into account all correlation functions and relevant charging states. The quantum interference (QI) effect of TQDM…

Using first-principles calculations we analyze the electronic transport properties of a recently proposed anthraquinone based electrochemical switch. Robust conductance on/off ratios of several orders of magnitude are observed due to…

We investigate the stability of destructive quantum interference (DQI) in electron transport through graphene nanostructures connected to source and drain electrodes. The fingerprint of DQI is the presence of an antiresonance in the…

The adsorption structure of the molecular switch azobenzene on Ag(111) is investigated by a combination of normal incidence x-ray standing waves and dispersion-corrected density functional theory. The inclusion of non-local collective…

We demonstrate that hexagonal graphene nanoflakes with zigzag edges display quantum interference (QI) patterns analogous to benzene molecular junctions. In contrast with graphene sheets, these nanoflakes also host magnetism. The cooperative…

We study the role of electronic spin and valley symmetry in the quantum interference (QI) patterns of the transmission function in graphene quantum junctions. In particular, we link it to the position of the destructive QI anti-resonances.…

We achieve, at room temperature, conductance enhancements over two orders of magnitude in single molecule circuits formed with polycyclic benzoquinoidal (BQn) diradicals upon increasing molecular length by ~0.5 nm. We find that this extreme…

We make a systematic theoretical analysis on the quantum interference (QI) effects in various fast-light media (including gain-assisted $N$, gain-assisted ladder-I, and gain-assisted ladder-II atomic systems). We show that such fast-light…
