摘要
An electric-field assisted assembly has been used to place rod-shaped, metal-organic, molecule-metal nanowires onto lithographically defined metal pads allowing the electrical characterization of metal-molecule self-assembled monolayer-metal containing nanowires. Our results show that the parameters of metal-molecule metal junctions are close to previously published data, so we have constructed systems containing insulating monolayers with reasonable properties.
