Abstract
Abstract Eleven bilayer molecular junctions (MJs) consisting of two different 5–7 nm thick molecular layers between conducting contacts are investigated to determine how orbital energies and optical absorbance spectra of the oligomers affect the photocurrent (PC) response, the direction of photoinduced charge transport, and maximum response wavelength. Photometric sensitivity of 2 mA W −1 and a detection limit of 11 pW are demonstrated for MJs, yielding an internal quantum efficiency of 0.14 electrons per absorbed photon. For unbiased MJs, the PC tracks the absorption spectrum of the molecular layer, and is stable for >5 h of illumination. The organic/organic (O/O) interface between the molecular layers within bilayer MJs is the primary determinant of PC polarity, and the bilayer MJ mechanism is conceptually similar to that of a single O/O heterojunction studied in bilayers of much greater thickness. The charge transport direction of the 11 MJs is completely consistent with hole‐dominated transport of photogenerated carriers. For MJs illuminated while an external bias is applied, the PC greatly exceeds the dark current by factors of 10 2 to 10 5 , depending on bias, bilayer structure, and wavelength. The bilayer MJs are amenable to flexible substrates, and may have applications as sensitive, wavelength‐specific photodetectors.

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 it
