The field of molecular electronics has developed significantly as experimental techniques to study charge transport through single molecules have become more reliable. Three Articles in this issue ...

Molecular electronics is a branch of nanotechnology that focuses on using individual molecules or nanoscale molecular structures as electronic components to create miniaturized circuits and devices.

Molecular electronics—the use of single molecules as the building blocks for electronic components—offers a potential pathway for the continued miniaturization of small-scale electronic devices.

Back in the old days—the really old days—the task of designing materials was laborious. Investigators, over the course of ...
