We focus our attention on providing a supramolecular-level understanding of charge transport behaviour associated with non-covalent interaction, as well as demonstrating experimental readiness of single-supermolecule electronics for potential applications.

We are attempting to employ the single-molecule technique to demonstrate the importance of electron and electric-field catalysis at single-molecule level, in order to bridge the gap between nanoscale STM experiments and large-scale electrocatalysis.
