Shuttle Mechanism for Charge Transfer in Coulomb Blockade Nanostructures

Shuttle Mechanism for Charge Transfer in Coulomb Blockade Nanostructures

Room-temperature Coulomb blockade of charge transport through composite nanostructures containing organic inter-links has recently been observed. A pronounced charging effect in combination with the softness of the molecular links implies that charge transfer gives rise to a significant deformation of these structures. For a simple model system containing one nanoscale …
