We have studied the switching characteristics of an optical molecular switch based on the phenoxynaphthacenequinone (PNQN) molecule with two armchair single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) electrodes using the first-principles density functional-based non-equilibrium Green's function (DFT-NEGF) metho

By applying non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism combined with first-principles density functional theory (DFT), we have investigated the electronic transport properties of the anthraquinonebased molecular switch. The molecule that comprises the switch can be converted between the hydro
We investigate the electronic transport properties of a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-conjugated carbon nanotube (CNT) field effect transistor (CNTFET) device. The CNTFET exhibited a strong decrease of the drain current after DNA conjugation. The observed decrease can be explained by the formation of
