Controlling Single Molecule Conductance by a Locally Induced Chemical Reaction on Individual Thiophene Units

Klaus Kern, Uta Schlickum, Hagen Klauk, Peter Wahl, Ivan Pentegov, Verena Katharina Schendel

Among the prerequisites for the progress of single-molecule-based electronic devices are a better understanding of the electronic properties at the individual molecular level and the development of methods to tune the charge transport through molecular jun ...

Remotely Controlled Isomer Selective Molecular Switching

Klaus Kern, Uta Schlickum, Hagen Klauk, Peter Wahl, Ivan Pentegov, Verena Katharina Schendel

Non local addressing-the "remote control"- of molecular switches promises more efficient processing for information technology, where fast speed of switching is essential. The surface state of the (111) facets of noble metals, a confined two-dimensional el ...

Bipolar Conductance Switching of Single Anthradithiophene Molecules

Klaus Kern, Uta Schlickum, Hagen Klauk, Peter Wahl, Ivan Pentegov, Verena Katharina Schendel

Single molecular switches are basic device elements in organic electronics. The pentacene analogue anthradithiophene (ADT) shows a fully reversible binary switching between different adsorption conformations on a metallic surface accompanied by a charge tr ...

Temperature and magnetic field dependence of a Kondo system in the weak coupling regime

Klaus Kern, Markus Ternes, Uta Schlickum, Peter Wahl

The Kondo effect arises due to the interaction between a localized spin and the electrons of a surrounding host. Studies of individual magnetic impurities by scanning tunneling spectroscopy have renewed interest in Kondo physics; however, a quantitative co ...

Quantum transport through single atoms and molecules

Klaus Kern, Yi Zhang, Peter Wahl

Experiments on quantum transport in a low temperature scanning tunneling microscope provide the possibility to study atomic and molecular contacts with well-defined electrode-geometry at least for one of the contacts, the surface. Here, we show for a numbe ...

Experimental visualization of scattering at defects in electronic transport through a single atomic junction

Klaus Kern, Peter Wahl

For electronic transport at the nanoscale, coherent scattering at defects plays an important role. Therefore, the capability of visualizing the influence of defects on the conductivity of single atomic junctions may benefit the development of future nano-e ...

Local spectroscopy of the Kondo lattice YbAl3: Seeing beyond the surface with scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy

Klaus Kern, Peter Wahl

We report on an atomic-scale study of the Kondo lattice compound YbAl3 using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS). An analysis of the surface orientation and structure is performed based on STM images containing more than one crystal ...

Quantum Point Contact Microscopy

Klaus Kern, Peter Wahl

We introduce quantum point contact microscopy (QPCM) as a novel method for surface characterization, where the conductance through a quantum point contact formed by a metal atom between the tip of a scanning tunneling microscope and the surface is mapped a ...

A tunable two-impurity Kondo system in an atomic point contact

Klaus Kern, Peter Wahl

Two magnetic atoms, one attached to the tip of a scanning tunnelling microscope and one adsorbed on a metal surface, each constituting a Kondo system, have been proposed as one of the simplest conceivable systems potentially exhibiting quantum critical beh ...

Kondo-effect of substitutional cobalt impurities at copper surfaces

Klaus Kern, Peter Wahl

The influence of the coordination on the Kondo temperature of a magnetic impurity at a noble metal surface and the line shape observed in low temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) is investigated for single cobalt atoms adsorbed on and embedded ...
