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 ...

Electronic and magnetic interactions in single molecular and atomic contacts

Verena Katharina Schendel

This thesis encompasses an investigation of organic molecules on metallic substrates as well as a study of electronic and magnetic effects in atomic-sized palladium contacts. For this, a scanning tunneling microscope, operating at 6 K and ultra-high vacuum ...
