Funded Activity Summary

Laser Spectroscopy of Molecular Electronic Components. Electronic devices such as computer memory have been getting smaller and smaller for decades, yet soon devices will need to be constructed from single molecules. Single molecules behave very differently to copper conductors and silicon chips. To understand the behaviour of molecular electronic devices such as molecular wires, switches and diodes, one needs to isolate them under rigorously reproducable conditions. We will study molecular electronic devices in this way, providing rigorous support to Australia's growing expertise in this field.
