We theoretically investigate, as a function of the stretching, the behaviour of the Seebeck coefficient, the electronic heat conductance and the figure of merit of a molecule-based junction composed of a benzene-1,4-dithiolate (BDT) molecule coupled to Au(111) surfaces at room temperature.

Recent experimental indications of room-temperature quantum interference in the sub-nanometer single molecules suggest that such effects could be utilized to engineer thermoelectric properties of organic single molecule junctions. In this paper, we show that the thermoelectric power factor is significantly enhanced in double path ferrocene cycles compared to the single path counterpart. Due to quantum interference in the double path structure, the Seebeck coefficient is significantly enhanced while the conductance is less affected compared to single path structure. The power factor of the ferrocene cycles are 1–2 orders of magnitude higher than the best organic material reported today. This opens new avenues for future molecular scale organometallic thermoelectricity.

The Individual

Detailed measurements of the low-frequency Raman spectra of the crystals of [ZnPy2Cl2] and [ZnPy2Br2] at room temperature, where Py is the pyridine molecule, and the far-infrared spectrum of the crystal of [ZnPy2Cl2] at liquid nitrogen temperature have been made. The vibrational frequencies for the single molecule and for the complete crystal of these two complexes have been calculated and compared with the observed spectra, and the distribution of the potential energy of the normal modes has also been calculated to assist the refinement of the calculation and the interpretation of the spectra. Apparently, the skeletal Zn–ligand vibrations of the individual molecule couple with the lattice vibrations in the crystal, except for the normal modes at 326 cm−1 for [ZnPy2Cl2] and at 250 cm−1 for [ZnPy2Br2] which are dominated by the Zn–halogen stretching vibrations. Reasonably good Zn–ligand stretching force constants were obtained. The nature of the coordination bonds of these complexes has been discussed.
