First principles calculation of ac conductance for Al-BDT-Al and Al-Cn-Al systems

We perform first-principles calculation to investigate the dynamic conductance of atomic wires of the benzenedithiol (BDT) as well as carbon chains with different length in contact with two Al(100) electrodes (Al-Cn-Al). Our calculation is based on the combination of the non-equilibrium Green's...
