Electrode-free nanopore sensor. Courtesy: S Huang, Nanjing University Nanopore sensors can identify a wide variety of single molecules and biomolecules, but all such devices made so far rely on ...

However, making single-molecule diodes – the most basic of all electronic elements – has proved to be a difficult task. A single-molecule diode is a two-terminal electronic component that allows ...

An electronically promising molecule functions well in acid as a tiny amplifier, underscoring the importance of controlling molecules' electrochemical environments to achieve predictable performance.

A newly engineered single-molecule magnet can retain magnetic memory up to 100 K (−173 °C), surpassing previous limits and enabling potential data storage densities of about 3 TB/cm 2.
