摘要:

金-分子-金结可以通过在含有二硫醇化分子的溶液中小心地断开金线来形成。令人惊讶的是,很少有人了解桥形成过程的机械细节,特别是二硫醇分子本身所起的作用。我们提出,烷二硫醇分子已经形成的金电极之间的原子金结被打破之前的桥梁。这导致单原子金结的稳定,如实验所观察到的。我们的数据可以在一个简单的弹簧模型中理解。

英文摘要:

Gold-molecule-gold junctions can be formed by carefully breaking a gold wire in a solution containing dithiolated molecules. Surprisingly, there is little understanding on the mechanical details of the bridge formation process and specifically on the role that the dithiol molecules play themselves. We propose that alkanedithiol molecules have already formed bridges between the gold electrodes before the atomic gold-gold junction is broken. This leads to stabilization of the single atomic gold junction, as observed experimentally. Our data can be understood within a simple spring model.
