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 using single-molecule techniques to investigate electron and electric-field catalysis, aiming to directly connect insights from nanoscale STM studies with macroscopic electrocatalytic processes.
