Resumo

Hitherto, only molecular wires with a regular ohmic behavior in which the electric conductance decreases with the wire length have been synthesized. Implementation of molecular conductors with reversed conductance/length trend (anti-ohmic) might revolutionize the field of molecular electronics, allowing the development of electronic devices with extraordinary properties. It is for this reason that, recently, theoretical efforts have been focused on this topic and different structures have been proposed to show reversed conductance/length behavior on the basis of density functional theory non-equilibrium Green function approach (DFT-NEGF) and
