Electron transport characteristics are investigated through some molecular chains attached with two non-superconducting electrodes by the use of Green's function method. Here we do parametric calculations based on the tight-binding formulation to characterize the electron transport through such bridge systems. The transport properties are significantly influenced by (a) the length of the molecular chain and (b) the molecule-to-electrodes coupling strength and here we focus our results in these aspects. In this context we also discuss the steady state current fluctuations, so-called shot noise, which is a consequence of the quantization of charge and is not directly available through conductance measurements.

We study electron transport through molecular chains attached with two nonsuperconducting electrodes by the use of Green's function technique. Here, we do parametric calculations based on the tight-binding model to characterize the electron transport through such bridge systems and see that the transport properties are significantly affected by (a) the length of the molecular chain and (b) the molecule-to-electrode coupling strength. In this context, we also discuss the steady state current fluctuations, so-called shot noise, which is a consequence of the quantization of charge and is not directly available through conductance measurements.
