Scientists have achieved a significant breakthrough in nanoscale optoelectronics, enabling precise control over single-molecule switching using localized surface plasmons. This development opens new possibilities for creating more efficient and adaptable nano-devices, potentially transforming technology sectors such as sensors and energy systems. Credit: FHI, edited
Researchers at the Fritz Haber Institute have advanced An additional key aspect of this breakthrough is the tunability of the optoelectronic function through atomic-level molecular modification. The team confirmed that photoswitching is inhibited for another organic molecule, in which only one oxygen DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-51000-w
