## Abstract __We report the electron‐transport behaviors of a number of molecular junctions composed of π‐conjugated molecular wires. From calculations performed by using density functional theory (DFT) combined with the non‐equilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) method, we found that the length–condu

✦ Synopsis
We study the effects of electronic correlations in the transport characteristics of this molecular junction made of the two-atom molecule connected to the noninteracting leads. We compare the results of two different approaches: (1) the spin unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) method and (2) equation-of-motion (EOM) technique, allowing us to treat accurately all the intramolecular electron interactions.

We investigate the electronic properties in sequences of single and double-strand DNA molecules made up from the nucleotides guanine G, adenine A, cytosine C and thymine T. Using a tight-binding formulation we solve the timedependent Schro¨dinger equation to compute the spread of initially localized
We have analysed our experimental data on electronic transport in bulk doped and compensated CdTe crystals. The level of doping has been varied from the weak doping to the high doping limit. It has been shown that the data obtained can be explained by the presence of large-scale potential relief owi
