Resonant Charge Transport in Conjugated Molecular Wires beyond 10 nm Range

Using a scanning tunneling microscope, we measured high-bias conductance of single polyporphyrin molecular wires with lengths from 1.3 to 13 nm. We observed several remarkable transport characteristics, including multiple sharp conductance peaks, conductances as high as 20 nS in wires with lengths o...

Zusammenfassung:Using a scanning tunneling microscope, we measured high-bias conductance of single polyporphyrin molecular wires with lengths from 1.3 to 13 nm. We observed several remarkable transport characteristics, including multiple sharp conductance peaks, conductances as high as 20 nS in wires with lengths of >10 nm, and nearly length-independent conductance (attenuation
