Abstract

In recent years, systems capable of charge and energy transport have gained tremendous scientific interest due to their applicability in electronics industry. Thus, a great variety of potential molecular wire systems have been designed, synthesized and tested. We will briefly survey a few examples to highlight the theoretical principles of charge/energy transfer through molecular systems.
