Published in 2018 at "Organic Electronics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.orgel.2018.08.040

Abstract: Abstract We report electron transport measurements through a metal-molecule-metal junction of free base or zinc porphyrin molecules. Junctions are formed by zig-zag electromigration of a gold nanowire. Inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy measurements were performed at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.nanolett.0c01130

Abstract: Circular dichroism spectroscopy is an essential technique for understanding molecular structure and magnetic materials, but spatial resolution is limited by the wavelength of light, and sensitivity sufficient for single-molecule spectroscopy is challenging. We demonstrate that… read more here.
