Harnessing quantum properties to create single-molecule devices

Researchers report that they have discovered a new chemical design principle for exploiting destructive quantum interference. They used their approach to create a six-nanometer single-molecule switch where the on-state current is more than 10,000 times greater than the off-state current -- the largest change in current achieved for a single-molecule circuit to date.
