| In
order to understand the function of moletronic devices, it is necessary
to first measure basic electrical properties of these devices. The "nano-bucket"
is being developed as a device model, and the electrical properties of the
molecules assembled in these "nano-buckets" will be measured using electrical
probe stations. These data will not only provide insights into the charge
transport mechanism in moletronic devices, but also allow for a comparison
with measurements from scanned-probe experiments. For more information, contact: Dr. Curt A. Richter 301-975-2082 curt.richter@nist.gov |
