Silver-based atomic switches that create stable electrical connections between individual molecules and electrodes have been ...

As electronic devices continue to get smaller and smaller, physical size limitations are beginning to disrupt the trend of doubling transistor density on silicon-based microchips approximately every ...

Researchers built a silver atomic switch that forms and breaks single-molecule junctions, enabling stable molecular wiring ...

In January, 2022, – The first molecular electronics chip was developed. This achieved a 50-year-old goal of integrating single molecules into circuits to achieve the ultimate scaling limits of Moore’s ...

Scientists have long dreamed of making molecular electronics, building one-dimensional strings atom by atom to create new circuits even smaller than today’s tiniest silicon structures. Shrinking ...

Molecular electronics is the science that studies the quantum behavior of electrons tunneling through molecules, where the electrical properties of a single molecule are intrinsic fingerprint ...

James Tour and Roswell Biotechnologies just commercially released a molecular electronics chip. They attached molecules onto attachments at billions of points on a semiconductor chip. This speeds up ...
