Symmetric Negative Differential Resistance in a Molecular Nanosilver Chain

The electrical transport properties of the molecular nanosilver chain have been investigated. We observed the symmetric negative differential resistance (NDR) in the current-voltage characteristics. The peak voltage (VP) increased but the peak current (IP) decreased upon cooling. The self-capacitanc...

Zusammenfassung:The electrical transport properties of the molecular nanosilver chain have been investigated. We observed the symmetric negative differential resistance (NDR) in the current-voltage characteristics. The peak voltage (VP) increased but the peak current (IP) decreased upon cooling. The self-capacitance effect of the silver chain crystal is suggested to explain this unconventional NDR phenomenon.
