Abstract:International audienceMolecular devices will be contacted by systems with increasingly reduced dimensions. The device will need to be held somehow, possibly on a solid surface, and electronic currents will be addressed to the device via some kind of 1-D interconnect of atomic size. The fact that the device is posed on a surface brings in perturbations and eventually malfunctions of the device. Semiconducting surfaces have been deemed to be good candidates for this molecular technology because they have an elec… Show more
