Orbital Mediated Tunneling in a New Unimolecular Rectifier
Online Presentations | 25 May 2007 | Contributor(s):: Robert Metzger, NCN at Northwestern University
In 1997 we showed that hexadecylquinolinium tricyanoquinodimethanide is a unimolecular rectifier, by scanning tunneling microscopy and also as a Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) monolayer, sandwiched between Al electrodes. We have now seen rectification in a new molecule: this rectification can be followed...

CQT Lecture 4: Coulomb blockade and Fock space
Online Presentations | 30 Nov 2006 | Contributor(s):: Supriyo Datta
Objective: To illustrate the limitations of the model described in Lectures 2, 3 and introduce a completely different approach based on the concept of Fock space. I believe this will be a key concept in the next stage of development of transport physics.

CQT Lecture 3: Probabilities, Wavefunctions and Green Functions
Online Presentations | 30 Nov 2006 | Contributor(s):: Supriyo Datta
Objective: To extend the simple model from Lecture 2 into the full-blown model combines the NEGF (Non-Equilibrium Green Function) method with the Landauer approach.

CQT Lecture 2: Electrical Resistance - A Simple Model
Online Presentations | 30 Nov 2006 | Contributor(s):: Supriyo Datta
Objective:To introduce a simple quantitative model for describing current flow in nanoscalestructures and relate it to well-known large scale properties like Ohm’s Law.
