The explicit expressions for a nonresonant tunneling current mediated by the bridging units of the molecular wire embedded between the metallic electrodes, are derived. The specific regimes of the charge transmission controlled by…
We derive a master equation for the electron transport through molecular wires in the limit of strong Coulomb repulsion. This approach is applied to two typical situations: First, we study transport through an open conduction channel for…
Understanding electron transport processes in molecular wires connected between contacts is a central focus in the field of molecular electronics. Especially, the dephasing effect causing tunneling-to-hopping transition has great importance…
We demonstrate that a simple phenomenological approach can be used to simulate electronic conduction in molecular wires under thermal effects induced by the surrounding environment. This "Landauer-B\"uttiker's probe technique" can properly…
Sequential tunneling model is used to study electron transport in molecular rectifiers based on structures of donor-bridge-acceptor type. The device is made of two metallic electrodes connected by a molecule, which contains acceptor and…
An improved real-time quantum Monte Carlo procedure is presented and applied to describe the electronic transfer dynamics along molecular chains. The model consists of discrete electronic sites coupled to a thermal environment which is…
We consider the conductance of a one-dimensional wire interrupted by a double-barrier structure allowing for a resonant level. Using the electron-electron interaction strength as a small parameter, we are able to build a non-perturbative…
We study the differential conductance for charge tunneling into a semiconductor wire--superconductor hybrid structure, which is actively investigated as a possible scheme for realizing topological superconductivity and Majorana zero modes.…
Redox molecular junctions are molecular conduction junctions that involve more than one oxidation state of the molecular bridge. This property is derived from the ability of the molecule to transiently localize transmitting electrons,…
We discuss the well-known three-center cation-anion-cation model for superexchange in insulating transition-metal compounds using limiting expansions for the Anderson-Hubbard model. We find that due to the three interfering energy scales in…
The theoretical approach proposed recently for description of redistribution of electronic charge in multilayered selectively doped systems is modified for a system with finite number of layers. A special attention is payed to the case of a…
We present a theory of tunneling and resonant transitions in one-dimensional molecular systems which is based on Green's function theory of electron sub-barrier scattering off the structural units (or functional groups) of a molecular…
This paper extends the modern theory of tunneling transport to finite temperatures. The extension enables applications to molecular electronic devices connected to semiconducting leads. The paper presents an application of the theory to…
We consider tunneling transport through a Mn$_{12}$ molecular magnet using spin density functional theory. A tractable methodology for constructing many-body wavefunctions from Kohn-Sham orbitals allows for the determination of…
We introduce a model of a nonlinear double-barrier structure, to describe in a simple way the effects of electron-electron scattering while remaining analytically tractable. The model is based on a generalized effective-mass equation where…
We measure the low bias conductance of a series of substituted benzene diamine molecules while breaking a gold point contact in a solution of the molecules. Transport through these substituted benzenes is by means of nonresonant tunneling…
We develop an Over Barrier Model for computing charge exchange between ions and one-active-electron atoms at low impact energies. The main feature of the model is the treatment of the barrier crossing process by the electron within a…
We investigate models of molecular junctions which constitute minimal Hamiltonians to account for zero-bias-anomaly and the satellite features of inelastic transport by molecular phonons. Through nonlinear transport calculations with the…
We introduce a solvable model of a nonlinear double-barrier structure, described by a generalized effective-mass equation with a nonlinear coupling term. This model is interesting in its own right for possible new applications, as well as…
The electrical conductance of molecular junctions may strongly depend on the temperature, and weakly on molecular length, under two distinct mechanisms: phase-coherent resonant conduction, with charges proceeding via delocalized molecular…
