Key concepts in molecular electronics
This morning at MM2009 Abe Nitzan gave a beautiful talk which gave a unified physical picture of many of the important processes (electron transfer, solvation, transition state theory, vibrational relaxation, ....) that are key to understanding molecular conduction. On his website I found an earlier and more detailed version of the talk, given a few years ago in Cape Town.
This makes a nice companion to reading his book.
