Abstract:
Building reliable molecular electronic devices requires the ability to accurately and reproducibly measure the electronic response of the system under study. Here we review our work with three distinct molecular electronic test structures which show excellent agreement for measurements on molecular wires and molecular switch molecules. We also discuss how inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy enables chemical characterization of molecular electronic elements in actual device geometries.
