Abstract
A semiconductor device is disclosed. The device includes: oppositely disposed plural electrodes; a semiconductor molecule disposed such that one end part thereof binds to a surface of the electrode in each of the opposing electrodes; and a conductor for electrically connecting at least a part of the other end part of the semiconductor molecule disposed in one electrode of the opposing electrodes to at least a part of the other end part of the semiconductor molecule disposed in the other electrode of the opposing electrodes. The conductivity between the opposing electrodes is substantially determined by the conductivity of the semiconductor molecule electrically connected to the conductor between the opposing electrodes in the semiconductor molecules.
