TL;DR: EC on Au provides a platform for fabrication and operation of chemically stable, optically and electrically functional molecules on rigid or flexible materials and the relative ease of processing and the robustness of molecular junctions incorporating eC layers should help address the challenge of economic fabrication of practical, flexible Molecular junctions for a potentially wide range of applications.

TL;DR: Parallel fabrication, thermal stability, and high yield are required for practical applications of molecular electronics, and the reported results provide important steps toward integration of molecular electronic devices with commercial processes and devices.

TL;DR: A dramatic decrease in wetting layer thickness was achieved by depositing Alq3 onto alkyltrichlorosilane-derivatized Si/oxide substrates, likely caused by an interfacial energy mismatch between the substrate and Al Q3.

TL;DR: In this paper, an electronic device may have one or more intermediate layers between contacts each comprising an e-beam deposited carbon (e-Carbon) layer and a metal layer.
