Incoherent dynamics of vibrating single-molecule transistors
Incoherent dynamics of vibrating single-molecule transistors
We study the tunneling conductance of nano-scale quantum ``shuttles'' in connection with a recent experiment (H. Park et al., Nature, 407, 57 (2000)) in which a vibrating C^60 molecule was apparently functioning as the island of a single electron transistor (SET). While our calculation starts from the same model of …
