2 Why transport calculations for molecules? Technological reason (molecular electronics) use of molecular building blocks for the fabrication of electronic components design suitable molecular complexes with required functionality, e.g. memory elements, switches, diods or transistors data trasnfer by charge (or spin) transport required (transport) theories with predicative power: computer aided device design (Fundamental) scientific reason molecules are quantum dots with unexplored parameters regimes and symmetry properties attempt to understand and predict qualitatively new transport phenomena 2 Alexei Bagrets FHI-aims Developers' and Users' Meeting - August 28-31, 2012
