Extended Data Fig. 4: Transmission of linear tetrasilane (Si4) with one bridging unit cut.
From: Comprehensive suppression of single-molecule conductance using destructive σ-interference

a, Transmission plot of Si4 and Si4-cut, where one Si(CH3)2 unit has been cut away and the bridgehead silicon atoms passivated with hydrogen atoms. b, c, Transmission pathways are shown for (b) Si4 and (c) Si4-cut. d, Transmission at the Fermi energy plotted against bridgehead silicon distance of Si4 and Si4-cut. Solid red line is a linear fit to the data of Si4-cut.
