By introducing a simple graphical representation (parabolic diagram), we can easily visualize the relation between the different electronic parameters determining the regimes where Fano resonances or anti-resonances in the low-energy conductance spectrum can be expected. The results obtained within the coarse-grained model are validated using density-functional based quantum transport calculations in realistic T-shaped molecular junctions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2013-07-17T13:39:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum interference", "fano resonances", "generic molecular junction", "coarse-grained model", "quantum transport calculations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/1742-6596/427/1/012013", "journal": "Journal of Physics Conference Series", "year": 2013, "month": "Mar", "volume": 427, "number": 1, "pages": "012013" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013JPhCS.427a2013N" } } }
