A new tool for
molecular electronics ... Hihath, a post-doctoral
researcher in
Professor Nongjian Tao's research group in the
Department of Electrical Engineering at Arizona State
University, is first author of a recent paper in
Nanotechnology in which he and Tao describe a novel
conductance screening tool for molecules ("Rapid
measurement of single-molecule conductance"). This
device is capable of identifying signals due to a single
molecule covalently bound between two electrodes, providing
repeatable contacts to single molecules, and performing a
statistical analysis of the results to take into account the
affects of different contact geometries and molecular
configurations.

NJ
Tao and colleagues have developed two different sensors
based on the tiny quartz tuning forks used in wristwatches.
When struck, the two prongs of the fork vibrate, moving
closer together and further apart.more
