The Diversity of Electron‐Transport Behaviors of Molecular Junctions: Correlation with the Electron‐Transport Pathway
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract We report the electron‐transport behaviors of a number of molecular junctions composed of π‐conjugated molecular wires. From calculations performed by using density functional theory (DFT) combined with the non‐equilibrium Green’s function (NEGF) method, we found that the length–conductivity relations are diverse, depending on the particular molecular structures. The results reveal that the conductance–length dependence follows an exponential law for many conjugated molecules with a single channel, such as oligothiophene, oligopyrrole and oligophenylene. Therefore, a quantitative relation between the energy gap ( E g ) ∞ of the molecular wire and the attenuation factor β can be defined. However, when the molecular wires have multichannels, the decay of conductance does not follow the exponential relation. For example, the conductance of porphyrin‐based oligomers and fused thiophene decays almost linearly. The diversity of electron‐transport behaviors of molecular junctions is directly dominated by the electron‐transport pathway.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
