The conductance and thermopower behavior of pendent trans-coordinated Palladium(II) complexes in cingle-molecule junctions

The present work provides insight into the effect of connectivity within isomeric 1,2-bis(2-pyridylethynyl)benzene (bpb) palladium complexes on their electron transmission properties within gold|single-molecule|gold junctions. The ligands 2,2′-((4,5-bis(hexyloxy)-1,2-phenylene)bis(ethyne-2,1-diyl))b...
