These results are in contrast to the trends in the metal work function Φ(Ag)&lt;Φ(Au). As such, a better alignment of the Au Fermi level to the molecular orbital of silane that mediates charge transport would be expected. This conductance trend is reversed when we replace the thiols with amines, highlighting the impact of metal–S covalent and metal–NH<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> dative bonds in controlling the molecular conductance. Density functional theory calculations elucidate the crucial role of the chemical linkers in determining the level alignment when molecules are attached to different metal contacts. We also demonstrate that conductance of thiol‐terminated silanes with Pt electrodes is lower than the ones formed with Au and Ag electrodes, again in contrast to the trends in the metal work‐functions.","lang":"eng"}],"date_published":"2017-11-06T00:00:00Z","title":"Silver makes better eElectrical contacts to thiol‐terminated silanes than Gold","publisher":"Wiley","publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"Angewandte Chemie International Edition","year":"2017","volume":56,"doi":"10.1002/anie.201708524","extern":"1","OA_type":"closed access","month":"11"}
