Carotene as a Molecular Wire:  Conducting Atomic Force Microscopy

A conducting atomic force microscope was used to measure the electrical properties of carotenoid molecules attached to a gold electrode. The thiolated carotene molecules were embedded in insulating n-alkanethiol self-assembled monolayers. At a contact force of a few nanoNewtons, a carotenoid molecul...
