Tiniest circuits: Light-controlled molecule switching

Monday, April 20, 2015 - 09:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers have succeeded in light-controlled molecule switching. Scientists are working on storing and processing information on the level of single molecules to create the smallest possible components that will combine autonomously to form a circuit. Researchers can switch on the current flow through a single molecule for the first time with the help of light.
