“…Because of the latter situation, in which one of the DOS is metallic and the other is a nanoscale structure, any accessible DOS of the nanoscale structure suitably coupled to the conductive electrode can be effectively measured. It is worth emphasizing that the DOS associated with C q , as measured in a diffusionless ET situation, 3,4 is not related to the Marcus-Gerischer DOS, 9 which is theoretically described for a diffusiondependent ET context.…”
