Molecular Polarizability as a Descriptor for Molecular Conductance

abstract: We studied the relationship between the polarizability and the molecular conductance that arises in the response of a molecule to an external electric field. To illustrate the plausibility of the idea, we used Simmons' tunneling model, which describes image charge and dielectric ef...
