Abstract

We illustrate a couple of circuit implementations of molecular devices, chosen as representative examples in the growing field of molecular electronics. On the one side, we discuss the performance of organic thin film transistors and their potential use in inverters and ring oscillators. On the other, we analyze simple electronics components based on single molecules and a cross bar architecture that utilizes them to build novel nonvolatile memories.
