ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a molecular electronics arrangement comprising a substrate, at least one first strip conductor having a surface and being arranged in or on the substrate, a spacer which is arranged on the surface of the at least one first strip conductor and which partially covers the surface of the at least one first strip conductor, and at least one second strip conductor which is arranged on the spacer and comprises a surface which faces the surface of the at least one first strip conductor in a plane manner. The spacer partially covers the surface of the at least one second strip conductor, and defines a pre-determined distance between the at least one first strip conductor and the at least one second strip conductor. The inventive molecular electronics arrangement also comprises molecular electronics molecules which are arranged between a free region of the surface of the at least one first strip conductor and a free region of the surface of the at least one second strip conductor, the length of said molecules being essentially equal to the distance between the at least one first strip conductor and the at least one second strip conductor. The invention also relates to a method for producing a molecular electronics arrangement.
