摘要:

石墨烯电极是通过新的电极-分子锚定策略来提高分子电子学中的再现性和稳定性的有希望的候选者。在这里,我们报告了顺序电子输运在几层石墨烯晶体管含有个人姜黄素为基础的分子锚定的电极通过π-π轨道键合。我们表明,由于中间分子-电极耦合的非弹性共隧穿激发与单电子输运物理的共存,我们认为,中间电子-声子耦合是这些振动辅助激发的起源。这些实验观察与密度泛函理论计算的补充模型电子输运和姜黄素分子的电子和振动模式之间的相互作用。我们发现,计算的分子的振动模式与实验观察到的激发。

英文摘要:

Graphene electrodes are promising candidates to improve reproducibility and stability in molecular electronics through new electrode-molecule anchoring strategies. Here we report sequential electron transport in few-layer graphene transistors containing individual curcuminoid-based molecules anchored to the electrodes via pi-pi orbital bonding. We show the coexistence of inelastic co-tunneling excitations with single-electron transport physics owing to an intermediate molecule-electrode coupling; we argue that an intermediate electron-phonon coupling is the origin of these vibrational-assisted excitations. These experimental observations are complemented with density functional theory calculations to model electron transport and the interaction between electrons and vibrational modes of the curcuminoid molecule. We find that the calculated vibrational modes of the molecule are in agreement with the experimentally observed excitations.
