摘要: Abstract We report on the calculation of I / V characteristic curve a molecular species with an extended π system, which has been shown to behave as single molecule diode. have applied computational method based Non-Equilibrium Green Function simplified treatment molecule-lead interaction that taken proportional projection orbitals onto specific terminal fragments. are able fit experimental data and give interpretation at level in terms energy shift mixing frontier around Fermi level.
