Anchoring Groups Determine Conductance, Thermopower and Thermoelectric Figure of Merit of an Organic Molecular Junction
Transport properties of molecular junctions are prone to chemical or conformational modifications. Perturbation of the molecule-electrode coupling with anchoring groups or functionalization of the molecule with side groups is a well-characterized method to modulate the thermoelectric properties of m...
