We discuss the effective donor/acceptor coupling for a bridged electron transfer system with a site-diagonal disorder of bridge energies. The average spectral properties of the system are discussed by using the Wegner model (Anderson's type…

We report a fully microscopic theory for transconductivity, or, equivalently, momentum transfer rate, of Coulomb coupled electron systems. We use the Kubo linear response formalism, and our main formal result expresses the transconductivity…

We suggest universal expressions for the rates of charge transition between molecules in organic disordered semiconductors, which differ between electrons and holes. The donor and acceptor molecules (monomers) are represented in terms of…

The possibility of using single molecule junctions as electron pumps for energy conversion and storage is considered. It is argued that the small dimensions of these systems enable to make use of unique intra-molecular quantum coherences in…

An interaction of electromagnetic field with a nanostructure composed of two quantum dots is studied theoretically. An effect of a resonant electron transfer between the localized low-lying states of quantum dots is predicted. A necessary…

Understanding of charge transport mechanisms in nanoscale structures is essential for the development of molecular electronic devices. Charge transport through 1D molecular systems connected between two contacts is influenced by several…

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…

We present measurements of the rates for an electron to tunnel on and off a quantum dot, obtained using a quantum point contact charge sensor. The tunnel rates show exponential dependence on drain-source bias and plunger gate voltages. The…

In this review we consider those processes in condensed matter that involve the irreversible flow of energy between electrons and nuclei that follows from a system being taken out of equilibrium. We survey some of the more important…

Building upon traditional quantum chemistry calculations, we have implemented an {\em ab-initio} method to study the electrical transport in nanocontacts. We illustrate our technique calculating the conductance of C$_{60}$ molecules…

Electronic transport across n-Si-alkyl monolayer/Hg junctions is, at reverse and low forward bias, independent of alkyl chain-length from 18 down to 1 or 2 carbons! This and further recent results indicate that electron transport is…

We investigate the role of quantum coherence in modulating the energy transfer rate between two independent energy donors and a single acceptor participating in an excitonic energy transfer process. The energy transfer rate depends…

The influence of the charging effects on the transport characteristics of a molecular wire bridging two metallic electrodes in the limit of weak contacts is studied by generalized Breit-Wigner formula. Molecule is modeled as a quantum dot…

We consider correlated transfer ionization in relativistic collisions between a highly charged ion and a light atom. In this process two quasi-free electrons of the atom interact with each other during the short collision time that results…

The trend to fabricate electrical circuits on nanoscale dimensions has led to impressive progress in the field of molecular electronics in the last decade. A theoretical description of molecular contacts as the building blocks of future…

Electron transport through molecular bridge shows novel quantum features. Propogation of electronic wave function through molecular bridge is completely different than individual atomic bridge employed between two contacts. In case of…

Biomolecular machines are protein complexes that convert between different forms of free energy. They are utilized in nature to accomplish many cellular tasks. As isothermal nonequilibrium stochastic objects at low Reynolds number, they…

A path integral approach has been generalized for the non-relativistic electron charge transfer processes. The charge transfer - the capture of an electron by an ion passing another atom or more generally the problem of rearrangement…

We study the Coulomb drag effect in double layer electronic systems with local tunneling links. The possibility of tunneling between the layers leads to a pronounced exchange contribution to the transconductance, which is negative and…

The effect of a thermal environment on electron (or hole) transfer through molecular bridges and on the electron conduction properties of such bridges is studied. Our steady state formalism based on an extension of the Redfield theory (D.…
