摘要: An approach to reproducibly fabricate molecular electronic devices is presented. Lateral nanometer-scale gaps with high yield are formed in Au/Pd nanowires by a combination of electromigration and Joule-heating-induced thermomechanical stress. The resulting nanogap used measure the electrical properties small numbers two different species end-groups, namely 1,4-butane dithiol 1,5-diamino-2-methylpentane. Fluctuations current reveal that case molecule devices, individual molecules conduct intermittently, fluctuations becoming more pronounced at larger biases.
