Interface Geometry and Molecular Junction Conductance: Geometric Fluctuation and Stochastic Switching
Abstract
Metal/molecule/metal transport junctions can transport charge in the elastic scattering (Landauer) regime if the injection gap is large and the molecule is relatively short. Stochastic switching and broad conduction peak distributions have been observed in such junctions. We examine the effect of altering interface geometry on transport, using density functional calculations. For most structures, variations in conductance of order 0-300% are found, but when an atomic wire of Au binds to the molecule, symmetry changes can modify currents by a factor of 10(3).

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.
