摘要
We theoretically reveal that molecule-electrode coupling plays a crucial role in electron transport of molecular junction systems. It is found that as the coupling becomes stronger, transmission peaks are lowered despite the increasing of the wave function hybridization between molecule and electrode. The transmission decrease comes from the enhancement of electron scattering inside a molecule. We clarify the mechanism by which molecule-electrode coupling changes the magnitude of intramolecular scattering.
