Researchers demonstrate high electrical conductance for an antiaromatic nickel complex -- an order of magnitude higher than for a similar aromatic complex. Since the conductance is also tunable by ...

When noble metals are treated with an aliphatic thiol, a uniform monolayer self-assembles on the surface; this phenomenon is interesting because the conducting molecules produce unique quantum ...

Scientists in the field of molecular electronics have extensively explored how electrons travel through single molecules of DNA. They’ve shown that A and B configurations of DNA differ in ...

Berkeley, CA - In a development that holds much promise for the future of solar cells made from nanocrystals, and the use of solar energy to produce clean and renewable liquid transportation fuels, ...

The concept of the electric field being null inside of a closed conducting surface was first illustrated by Michael Faraday in 19th century who also considered as a physicist who endorsed the field ...

A new type of molecular wire – formed from repeat units of silicon and oxygen – has been found to demonstrate the greatest resistance ever recorded, making them ideal insulators for molecular circuits ...

What is an electrical conductor? An electrical conductor is generally a metallic material that freely conducts electrical current. The best conductor is silver, followed by copper, and then aluminum.

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Technavio has announced the top five leading vendors in their recent global electrical conductor market for the power industry report until 2020. This research report also ...

Organic materials often have a lower production cost than traditional electric conductors like metals and semiconductors. Not all organic systems conduct electricity well, however. A class of organic ...
