The effect of asymmetric lateral linking groups on the electronic transport is investigated in the biphenyl molecule-based device with gold electrodes with the framework of density functional theory and nonequilibrium Green’s function. The asymmetric lateral linking groups reduce the currents of molecular junctions, and result in the reverse rectifying behavior. The devices with asymmetric lateral linking groups –SH and –SCH3 have maximum rectifying ratios, while the asymmetric lateral linking group –SH and –NH2 cause minimum rectifying ratios. The calculated results suggest that the asymmetric lateral linking group induces the reduced coupling between molecule and right electrode, asymmetric distribution of frontier molecular orbital and asymmetric evolution of the molecular orbital eigenenergies, accounting for the rectifying behavior.
