Ab initio modeling of open systems: Charge transfer, electron conduction, and molecular switching of aC60device

Open access

Abstract

We present an ab initio analysis of electron conduction through a ${\mathrm{C}}_{60}$ molecular device. Charge transfer from the device electrodes to the molecular region is found to play a crucial role in aligning the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital of the ${\mathrm{C}}_{60}$ to the Fermi level of the electrodes. This alignment induces a substantial device conductance of $\ensuremath{\sim}2.2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{(2e}^{2}/h).$ A gate potential can inhibit charge transfer, and introduce a conductance gap near ${E}_{F},$ changing the current-voltage characteristics from metallic to semiconducting, thereby producing a field-effect molecular current switch.

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.
