Coherent Destruction of Coulomb Blockade Peaks in Molecular Junctions

Published 2009-12-21, updated 2010-11-12Version 2
Coherent electronic transport in single-molecule junctions is investigated in the Coulomb blockade regime. Both the transmission phase and probability are calculated for junctions with various contact symmetries. A dramatic suppression of the Coulomb blockade peaks is predicted for junctions where multiple atomic orbitals of the molecule couple to a single electrode although the charging steps are unaffected.
