Abstract
By applying non-equilibrium Green's function formalism combined with density functional theory, we have investigated the electronic transport properties of nitrogen doped fullerene absorbed on the self-assembled alkanethiol monolayer. The molecular dipole moment, which in microscopy leads to the molecule–electrode coupling changing asymmetrically is responsible for the observed molecular rectification.
