Physicists have now demonstrated a particle accelerator so small it fits inside a single molecule, shrinking one of science’s most imposing machines to the scale of chemistry. Instead of ...

Adaptable molecular devices that function as memory units, logic gates, processors, or electronic synapses have been achieved without silica. Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science created the ...

Silver-based atomic switches that create stable electrical connections between individual molecules and electrodes have been developed by researchers from Japan, addressing a key challenge in wiring ...

Molecular electronic devices using quantum tunneling could achieve integration densities 1,000 times greater than silicon chips by combining atomic-precision assembly with three-dimensional ...

A new perspective article outlines a roadmap for harnessing light emission from individual molecules. By precisely ...

The atomic switch operates by forming and breaking a tiny silver filament inside a thin film of tantalum oxide. When a positive voltage is applied, silver atoms move to create a conductive bridge ...
