Transmission eigenvalue distributions in highly conductive molecular junctions

Transmission eigenvalue distributions in highly conductive molecular junctions

Background: The transport through a quantum-scale device may be uniquely characterized by its transmission eigenvalues τn. Recently, highly conductive single-molecule junctions (SMJ) with multiple transport channels (i.e., several τn > 0) have been formed from benzene molecules between Pt electro...
