Abstract:Single‐molecule electronics has evolved significantly in the past two decades. The first studies that focussed on simple, wire‐like organic compounds have been useful to establish the mechanism of charge transport, but the chemical complexity of the molecular component has been rapidly increased to allow the fabrication of functional devices such as switches and transistors. Organometallic compounds feature prominently in molecular electronics because as they offer, for instance, a straightforward way to impar… Show more
