New molecular electronics technology could exceed silicon chip density by 1,000 times
Shrinking transistors has driven computing performance for decades, but the approach is hitting physical ...
Researchers at University of Cambridge have taken a first experimental step toward understanding how the molecular mechanics ...
Researchers have developed a new theoretical modelling technique that could potentially be used in the development of switches or amplifiers in molecular electronics. Researchers have developed a new ...
A team of scientists from the University of Miami, in collaboration with two professors from Georgia Institute of Technology and University of Rochester, have developed a new kind of molecule that ...
The atomic switch operates by forming and breaking a tiny silver filament inside a thin film of tantalum oxide. When a positive voltage is applied, silver atoms move to create a conductive bridge ...
The miniaturization of electronic devices that use silicon-based technology will soon reach a limit and if devices are to continue getting smaller, scientists must harness the electronic properties of ...
Molecular switches are nanoscale devices that can reversibly change their state or conformation in response to external stimuli. These switches are typically individual molecules or molecular ...
University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign researchers report a unique strategy for controlling molecular conductance by using molecules with rigid backbones – such as ladder-type molecules, known as ...
