A comprehensive overview of the physical mechanisms that control
electron transport and the characteristics of metal-molecule-metal
(MMM) junctions. As far as possible, methods and formalisms
presented elsewhere to analyze electron transport through molecules
are avoided. This title introduces basic concepts--a description of
the electron transport through molecular junctions—and briefly
describes relevant experimental methods. Theoretical methods
commonly used to analyze the electron transport through molecules
are presented. Various effects that manifest in the electron
transport through MMMs, as well as the basics of density-functional
theory and its applications to electronic structure calculations in
molecules are presented. Nanoelectronic applications of molecular
junctions and similar systems are discussed as well. Molecular
electronics is a diverse and rapidly growing field.
