1. Molecular Electronics - Modeling, Devices and Architecture
Abstract : Molecular electronics is an area of micro/nanoelectronics with a number of farreaching goals and challenges: denser implementation of electronic memory and logic, less expensive manufacturing, smaller or more sensitive measurement devices, selfassembly of devices and systems and, last but not least, exploring new science and applications.In recent years, molecular electronics has expanded into a broader field of molecular-scale electronics, partly because molecular components have to be defined in solid-state contexts via lithography and self-assembly, and effectively become hybrid devices with new and interesting properties.

2. Mimicking the Binary World: Photochromic Compounds in Molecular Logic
Abstract : The language of the binary world is used in, e.g., electronic circuits of a computer where a signal either can be on, known as 1 or off, known as 0. In the effort to make things smaller, molecules that mimic this binary world have been suggested as potential replacements for electronic circuits. READ MORE

3. Photochromism - Logic and Biologic Approaches
Abstract : Photochromism is the light-induced colour change of molecules called photo-chromic compounds. The isomerisation causes changes in the electronic properties of the molecules and rearrangements of bonds which can be used in many more applications than the observed colour change. READ MORE

4. Norbornadienes for Solar Thermal Energy Storage and New Applications
Abstract : The energy demand worldwide is steadily increasing, therefore it is fundamental to efficiently utilise renewable energy resources. Energy storage technologies are partic- ularly relevant in order to be able to exploit renewable energy resources such as solar energy, since these are typically intermittent and not evenly distributed.

5. ALL-OPTICAL CONTROL OF MOLECULAR FUNCTIONS - ENERGY TRANSFER SWITCHING AND INFORMATION PROCESSING
Abstract : In this work, the photoswitching of molecular systems endowed with photochromic functionality have been investigated for the reversible photonic gating of excitation energy transfer (FRET) reactions as well as in application for all-photonic molecular logic. The presented systems involves the integration of photochromic entities within both covalent and non-covalent designs and serves to implicate photonic switching of molecular level phenomena. READ MORE
