Abstract

We investigate the transport properties of three-terminal carbon-based nanojunctions within the scattering matrix approach. The stability of such junctions is subordinated to the presence of nonhexagonal arrangements in the molecular network. Such "defective" arrangements do influence the resulting quantum transport observables, as a consequence of the possibility of acting as pinning centers of ...
