Theoretical Study of a Molecular Resonant Tunneling Diode
Abstract
Density functional theory calculations are performed to explain the electrical behavior of a π-conjugated oligo(phenylene ethynylene) resembling a resonant tunneling diode. Results of this theoretical study are compatible with the assumptions that electron transport occurs through the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital, that the conduction barrier is determined by the molecule chemical potential, and that the molecule becomes charged as the external potential increases. We are able to explain the nonlinear character of the current−voltage characteristic of the molecule and its temperature dependence. The intrinsic controlled-amplification feature of these molecules is indicated.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
