  text: 'We study the effects of molecular structure on the electronic transport and
    mechanical stability of single-molecule junctions formed with Au point contacts.
    Two types of linear conjugated molecular wires are compared: those functionalized
    with methylsulfide or amine aurophilic groups at (1) both or (2) only one of its
    phenyl termini. Using scanning tunneling and atomic force microscope break-junction
    techniques, the conductance of mono- and difunctionalized molecular wires and
    its dependence on junction elongation and rupture forces were studied. Charge
    transport through monofunctionalized wires is observed when the molecular bridge
    is coupled through a S–Au donor–acceptor bond on one end and a relatively weak
    Au−π interaction on the other end. For monofunctionalized molecular wires, junctions
    can be mechanically stabilized by installing a second aurophilic group at the
    meta position that, however, does not in itself contribute to a new conduction
    pathway. These results reveal the important interplay between electronic coupling
    through metal−π interactions and quantum mechanical effects introduced by chemical
    substitution on the conjugated system. This study affords a strategy to deterministically
    tune the electrical and mechanical properties through molecular wires.'

  text: Using self-energy-corrected density functional theory (DFT) and a coherent
    scattering-state approach, we explain current–voltage (IV) measurements of four
    pyridine-Au and amine-Au linked molecular junctions with quantitative accuracy.
    Parameter-free many-electron self-energy corrections to DFT Kohn–Sham eigenvalues
    are demonstrated to lead to excellent agreement with experiments at finite bias,
    improving upon order-of-magnitude errors in currents obtained with standard DFT
    approaches. We further propose an approximate route for prediction of quantitative
    IV characteristics for both symmetric and asymmetric molecular junctions based
    on linear response theory and knowledge of the Stark shifts of junction resonance
    energies. Our work demonstrates that a quantitative, computationally inexpensive
    description of coherent transport in molecular junctions is readily achievable,
    enabling new understanding and control of charge transport properties of molecular-scale
    interfaces at large bias voltages.

  text: We characterize electron transport across Au–molecule–Au junctions of heterogeneous
    carboxyl and methyl sulfide terminated saturated and conjugated molecules. Low-bias
    conductance measurements are performed using the scanning tunneling microscopy
    based break-junction technique in the presence of solvents and at room temperature.
    For a series of alkanes with 1–4 carbon atoms in the hydrocarbon chain, our results
    show an exponential decrease in conductance with increasing molecule length characterized
    by a decay constant of 0.9 ± 0.1 per methylene group. Control measurements in
    pH 11 solutions and with COOMe terminations suggest that the carboxylic acid group
    binds through the formation of a COO−–Au bond. Simultaneous measurements of conductance
    and force across these junctions yield a rupture force of 0.6 ± 0.1 nN, comparable
    to that required to rupture a Au–SMe bond. By establishing reliable, in situ junction
    formation, these experiments provide a new approach to probe electronic properties
    of carboxyl groups at the single molecule level.

  text: Understanding the role of intermolecular interaction on through-space charge
    transfer characteristics in π-stacked molecular systems is central to the rational
    design of electronic materials. However, a quantitative study of charge transfer
    in such systems is often difficult because of poor control over molecular morphology.
    Here we use the core-hole clock implementation of resonant photoemission spectroscopy
    to study the femtosecond charge-transfer dynamics in cyclophanes, which consist
    of two precisely stacked π-systems held together by aliphatic chains. We study
    two systems, [2,2]paracyclophane (22PCP) and [4,4]paracyclophane (44PCP), with
    inter-ring separations of 3.0 and 4.0 Å, respectively. We find that charge transfer
    across the π-coupled system of 44PCP is 20 times slower than in 22PCP. We attribute
    this difference to the decreased inter-ring electronic coupling in 44PCP. These
    measurements illustrate the use of core-hole clock spectroscopy as a general tool
    for quantifying through-space coupling in π-stacked systems.

  text: According to Kirchhoff's circuit laws, the net conductance of two parallel
    components in an electronic circuit is the sum of the individual conductances.
    However, when the circuit dimensions are comparable to the electronic phase coherence
    length, quantum interference effects play a critical role1, as exemplified by
    the Aharonov–Bohm effect in metal rings2,3. At the molecular scale, interference
    effects dramatically reduce the electron transfer rate through a meta-connected
    benzene ring when compared with a para-connected benzene ring4,5. For longer conjugated
    and cross-conjugated molecules, destructive interference effects have been observed
    in the tunnelling conductance through molecular junctions6,7,8,9,10. Here, we
    investigate the conductance superposition law for parallel components in single-molecule
    circuits, particularly the role of interference. We synthesize a series of molecular
    systems that contain either one backbone or two backbones in parallel, bonded
    together cofacially by a common linker on each end. Single-molecule conductance
    measurements and transport calculations based on density functional theory show
    that the conductance of a double-backbone molecular junction can be more than
    twice that of a single-backbone junction, providing clear evidence for constructive
    interference.

  text: The break-junction technique is widely used to measure electronic properties
    of nanoscale junctions including metal point-contacts and single-molecule junctions.
    In these measurements, conductance is measured as a function of electrode displacement
    yielding data that is analyzed by constructing conductance histograms to determine
    the most frequently observed conductance values in the nanoscale junctions. However
    much of the rich physics in these measurements is lost in this simple analysis
    technique. Conductance histograms cannot be used to study the statistical relation
    of distinct junction configurations, to distinguish structurally different configurations
    that have similar conductance values, or to obtain information on the relation
    between conductance and junction elongation. Here, we give a detailed introduction
    to a novel statistical analysis method based on the two-dimensional cross-correlation
    histogram (2DCH) analysis of conductance traces and show that this method provides
    new information about the relation of different junction configurations that occur
    during the formation and evolution of metal and single-molecule junctions. We
    first illustrate the different types of correlation effects by using simulated
    conductance traces. We then apply this analysis method to several different experimental
    examples. We show from break-junction measurements of different metal point-contacts
    that in aluminum, the first conductance histogram peak corresponds to two different
    junction structures. In tantalum, we identify the frequent absence of adhesive
    instability. We show that conductance plateaus shift in a correlated manner in
    iron and vanadium junctions. Finally, we highlight the applicability of the correlation
    analysis to single-molecule platinum–CO–platinum and gold–4,4′-bipyridine–gold
    junctions.

  text: Bulk silicon, the bedrock of information technology, consists of the deceptively
    simple electronic structure of just Si–Si σ bonds. Diamond has the same lattice
    structure as silicon, yet the two materials have dramatically different electronic
    properties. Here we report the specific synthesis and electrical characterization
    of a class of molecules, oligosilanes, that contain strongly interacting Si–Si
    σ bonds, the essential components of the bulk semiconductor. We used the scanning
    tunneling microscope-based break-junction technique to compare the single-molecule
    conductance of these oligosilanes to those of alkanes. We found that the molecular
    conductance decreases exponentially with increasing chain length with a decay
    constant β = 0.27 ± 0.01 Å–1, comparable to that of a conjugated chain of C═C
    π bonds. This result demonstrates the profound implications of σ conjugation for
    the conductivity of silicon.

  text: Brain circuits are assembled from a large variety of morphologically and functionally
    diverse cell types. It is not known how the intermingled cell types of an individual
    adult brain region differ in their expressed genomes. Here we describe an atlas
    of cell type transcriptomes in one brain region, the mouse retina. We found that
    each adult cell type expressed a specific set of genes, including a unique set
    of transcription factors, forming a 'barcode' for cell identity. Cell type transcriptomes
    carried enough information to categorize cells into morphological classes and
    types. Several genes that were specifically expressed in particular retinal circuit
    elements, such as inhibitory neuron types, are associated with eye diseases. The
    resource described here allows gene expression to be compared across adult retinal
    cell types, experimenting with specific transcription factors to differentiate
    stem or somatic cells to retinal cell types, and predicting cellular targets of
    newly discovered disease-associated genes.

  text: Electronic factors in molecules such as quantum interference and cross-conjugation
    can lead to dramatic modulation and suppression of conductance in single-molecule
    junctions. Probing such effects at the single-molecule level requires simultaneous
    measurements of independent junction properties, as conductance alone cannot provide
    conclusive evidence of junction formation for molecules with low conductivity.
    Here, we compare the mechanics of the conducting para-terminated 4,4′-di(methylthio)stilbene
    and moderately conducting 1,2-bis(4-(methylthio)phenyl)ethane to that of insulating
    meta-terminated 3,3′-di(methylthio)stilbene single-molecule junctions. We simultaneously
    measure force and conductance across single-molecule junctions and use force signatures
    to obtain independent evidence of junction formation and rupture in the meta-linked
    cross-conjugated molecule even when no clear low-bias conductance is measured.
    By separately quantifying conductance and mechanics, we identify the formation
    of atypical 3,3′-di(methylthio)stilbene molecular junctions that are mechanically
    stable but electronically decoupled. While theoretical studies have envisaged
    many plausible systems where quantum interference might be observed, our experiments
    provide the first direct quantitative study of the interplay between contact mechanics
    and the distinctively quantum mechanical nature of electronic transport in single-molecule
    junctions.

  text: We use a modified conducting atomic force microscope to simultaneously probe
    the conductance of a single-molecule junction and the force required to rupture
    the junction formed by alkanes terminated with four different chemical link groups
    which vary in binding strength and mechanism to the gold electrodes. Molecular
    junctions with amine, methylsulfide, and diphenylphosphine terminated molecules
    show clear conductance signatures and rupture at a force that is significantly
    smaller than the measured 1.4 nN force required to rupture the single-atomic gold
    contact. In contrast, measurements with a thiol terminated alkane which can bind
    covalently to the gold electrode show conductance and force features unlike those
    of the other molecules studied. Specifically, the strong Au–S bond can cause structural
    rearrangements in the electrodes, which are accompanied by substantial conductance
    changes. Despite the strong Au–S bond and the evidence for disruption of the Au
    structure, the experiments show that on average these junctions also rupture at
    a smaller force than that measured for pristine single-atom gold contacts.

  text: Van der Waals (vdW) interaction, and its subtle interplay with chemically
    specific interactions and surface roughness at metal/organic interfaces, is critical
    to the understanding of structure–function relations in diverse areas, including
    catalysis, molecular electronics and self-assembly1,2,3. However, vdW interactions
    remain challenging to characterize directly at the fundamental, single-molecule
    level both in experiments and in first principles calculations with accurate treatment
    of the non-local, London dispersion interactions. In particular, for metal/organic
    interfaces, efforts so far have largely focused on model systems consisting of
    adsorbed molecules on flat metallic surfaces with minimal specific chemical interaction4,5,6,7,8,9.
    Here we show, through measurements of single-molecule mechanics, that pyridine
    derivatives10,11 can bind to nanostructured Au electrodes through an additional
    binding mechanism beyond the chemically specific N–Au donor–acceptor bond. Using
    density functional theory simulations we show that vdW interactions between the
    pyridine ring and Au electrodes can play a key role in the junction mechanics.
    These measurements thus provide a quantitative characterization of vdW interactions
    at metal/organic interfaces at the single-molecule level.

  text: Owing to thermal fluctuations, two-dimensional (2D) systems cannot undergo
    a conventional phase transition associated with the breaking of a continuous symmetry1.
    Nevertheless they may exhibit a phase transition to a state with quasi-long-range
    order via the Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless (BKT) mechanism2. A paradigm example
    is the 2D Bose fluid, such as a liquid helium film3, which cannot condense at
    non-zero temperature although it becomes superfluid above a critical phase space
    density. The quasi-long-range coherence and the microscopic nature of the BKT
    transition were recently explored with ultracold atomic gases4,5,6. However, a
    direct observation of superfluidity in terms of frictionless flow is still missing
    for these systems. Here we probe the superfluidity of a 2D trapped Bose gas using
    a moving obstacle formed by a micrometre-sized laser beam. We find a dramatic
    variation of the response of the fluid, depending on its degree of degeneracy
    at the obstacle location.

  text: The computer vision and pattern recognition communities have recently witnessed
    a surge in feature-based methods for numerous applications including object recognition
    and image retrieval. Similar concepts and analogous approaches are penetrating
    the world of 3D shape analysis in a variety of areas including non-rigid shape
    retrieval and matching. In this chapter, we present both mature concepts and the
    state-of-the-art of feature-based approaches in 3D shape analysis. In particular,
    approaches to the detection of interest points and the generation of local shape
    descriptors are discussed. A wide range of methods is covered including those
    based on curvature, those based on difference-of-Gaussian scale space, and those
    that employ recent advances in heat kernel methods.

  text: Similarity and correspondence are two fundamental archetype problems in shape
    analysis, encountered in numerous application in computer vision and pattern recognition.
    Many methods for shape similarity and correspondence boil down to the minimum-distortion
    correspondence problem, in which two shapes are endowed with certain structure,
    and one attempts to find the matching with smallest structure distortion between
    them. Defining structures invariant to some class of shape transformations results
    in an invariant minimum-distortion correspondence or similarity. In this paper,
    we model shapes using local and global structures, formulate the invariant correspondence
    problem as binary graph labeling, and show how different choice of structure results
    in invariance under various classes of deformations.

  text: Finding a match between partially available deformable shapes is a challenging
    problem with numerous applications. The problem is usually approached by computing
    local descriptors on a pair of shapes and then establishing a point-wise correspondence
    between the two. In this paper, we introduce an alternative correspondence-less
    approach to matching fragments to an entire shape undergoing a non-rigid deformation.
    We use diffusion geometric descriptors and optimize over the integration domains
    on which the integral descriptors of the two parts match. The problem is regularized
    using the Mumford-Shah functional. We show an efficient discretization based on
    the Ambrosio-Tortorelli approximation generalized to triangular meshes. Experiments
    demonstrating the success of the proposed method are presented.

  text: In this paper, we explore the use of the diffusion geometry framework for
    the fusion of geometric and photometric information in local heat kernel signature
    shape descriptors. Our construction is based on the definition of a diffusion
    process on the shape manifold embedded into a high-dimensional space where the
    embedding coordinates represent the photometric information. Experimental results
    show that such data fusion is useful in coping with different challenges of shape
    analysis where pure geometric and pure photometric methods fail.

  text: 'Analysis of intrinsic symmetries of non-rigid and articulated shapes is an
    important problem in pattern recognition with numerous applications ranging from
    medicine to computational aesthetics. Considering articulated planar shapes as
    closed curves, we show how to represent their extrinsic and intrinsic symmetries
    as self-similarities of local descriptor sequences, which in turn have simple
    interpretation in the frequency domain. The problem of symmetry detection and
    analysis thus boils down to analysis of descriptor sequence patterns. For that
    purpose, we show two efficient computational methods: one based on Fourier analysis,
    and another on dynamic programming.'

  text: In classical signal processing, it is common to analyze and process signals
    in the frequency domain, by representing the signal in the Fourier basis, and
    filtering it by applying a transfer function on the Fourier coefficients. In some
    applications, it is possible to design an optimal filter. A classical example
    is the Wiener filter that achieves a minimum mean squared error estimate for signal
    denoising. Here, we adopt similar concepts to construct optimal diffusion geometric
    shape descriptors. The analogy of Fourier basis are the eigenfunctions of the
    Laplace-Beltrami operator, in which many geometric constructions such as diffusion
    metrics, can be represented. By designing a filter of the Laplace-Beltrami eigenvalues,
    it is theoretically possible to achieve invariance to different shape transformations,
    like scaling. Given a set of shape classes with different transformations, we
    learn the optimal filter by minimizing the ratio between knowingly similar and
    knowingly dissimilar diffusion distances it induces. The output of the proposed
    framework is a filter that is optimally tuned to handle transformations that characterize
    the training set.
