Abstract :
We have studied low temperature electron transport in three terminal single molecule transistors. Devices with OPV revealed a relation between transistor characteristics and position of molecular redox potentials strongly influenced by proximity to the metal. Fullerene based devices demonstrate negative differential resistance and indicate strong coupling of fullerene to gold
