Conformation-driven quantum interference effects mediated by through-space conjugation in self-assembled monolayers

Tunnelling currents through molecular junctions are affected by quantum interference effects, but understanding the factors leading to them remains a challenge. Here the authors show that through-space conjugation in self-assembled monolayers leads to conformation-dependent quantum interference that...
