摘要：

A monolayer sandwich. Electron-transport measurements were carried out in self-assembled monolayers of 1,4-phenylene diisocyanide using two different approaches; in one of the approaches, a single monolayer was sandwiched between two small gold contacts by use of nanolithographical and evaporation techniques (see picture). Conductance measurements at low temperature show discrete structures for both types of samples which are interpreted as arising from quantum transport through molecular ensembles.
