Molecular doping is key to controlling the electronic and electrical properties of organic semiconductors, lower contact resistance, enhance bulk conductivity and carrier mobility, and create higher performance devices. This talk reviews processes and options for interface doping in molecular and polymer semiconductors, and the roles that electron spectroscopy and carrier transport...
Various interactions contribute to the existence of an easy magnetization axis or plane in a system, a phenomenon known as magnetic anisotropy. Among those contributions, the so-called magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) is fundamental to understand magnetism at the nanoscale, since it is intimately related to the electronic structure. MCA is due to the spin-orbit (SO) interaction and it is...
Metal-molecule-metal junctions are attractive for many applications such as energy harvesting and sensing and a wide variety of techniques have been developed for their creation and electrical characterization.
In particular vibrational spectroscopy of metal-molecule-metal junctions is desirable simply because it shows whether the molecule remains intact and whether any new vibrational modes...
