A scientist at the University of Liverpool has helped to create the world’s smallest transistor – by proving that a single molecule can power electric circuits. Dr Werner Hofer, from the University’s ...

(Nanowerk News) An international team of researchers from Queen Mary University of London, the University of Oxford, Lancaster University, and the University of Waterloo have developed a new ...

Scientists made a single-molecule transistor using quantum interference to control electron flow. This new design offers high on/off ratio and stability, potentially leading to smaller, faster, and ...

A bunch of you sent this in, but as far as I can tell, Martin Rogers was the first. Bell Labs scientists have managed to get a single molecule to act as a transistor. Though they have not yet figured ...

Electronics keep shrinking, but silicon is starting to run into physical limits. To go smaller, researchers are turning to something far tinier than any transistor on a chip: single molecules that act ...

Researchers have demonstrated a switch, analogous to a transistor, made from a single molecule called fullerene. By using a carefully tuned laser pulse, the researchers are able to use fullerene to ...

Molecular electronics is the science that studies the quantum behavior of electrons tunneling through molecules, where the electrical properties of a single molecule are intrinsic fingerprint ...
