Enfluence of Orientation of Side Ligand Group on Current Through Molecular Device

The recent significant advances in the molecular electronics show that the molecular device is a good candidate with great potential as the successor to the sil-icon-based semi-conductors. After the successful ex-perimental work made by Reed et al. in which the sin-gle benzene molecule acts as the core of the molecular device, many experimental and theoretical investiga-tions have been done on this subject.
