Mechanical single-molecule potentiometers with large switching factors from ortho-pentaphenylene foldamers

Molecular potentiometers that can indicate displacement-conductance relationship, and predict and control molecular conductance are of significant importance but rarely developed. Here, the authors design a robust single-molecule potentiometers based on helical structures and give insight in fundame...

Description
Summary:Molecular potentiometers that can indicate displacement-conductance relationship, and predict and control molecular conductance are of significant importance but rarely developed. Here, the authors design a robust single-molecule potentiometers based on helical structures and give insight in fundamental understanding of charge transport in higher-order helical molecules.
