Abstract

Adv. Mater. 2016, 28, 1824–1830 Hereby, the values of β and c, which were accidently wrongly calculated in the published article, are corrected. The values of β and c were reported with the wrong unit, Å, while the values for d in panel 4b were plotted in units of nm. Therefore, the values of β and c should have also been reported in units of nm. For clarity, the corrected Figure 4B with β and c values of 1.30 ± 0.02 nm−1 and 0.28 ± 0.01 nm−1, respectively, is provided here, where the values of ln|J| (instead of log|J|) are plotted against d in nm along with fits to Equation (1) and (2). Based on the temperature-dependent charge-transport data and the values of β and c, the arguments and conclusions are still valid. It is emphasized that the observations are very similar to those reported by others: the β and c values are a factor of 2–3 lower than those reported in by Yan et al.[1] (measured across covalent oligo bis-thienylbenzene), but are about a factor of 2 higher than those reported by Merces et al.[2] (measured across physisorbed layers of copper phthalocyanine), and are similar to β values reported for junctions with azurin and bacteriorhodopsin reported by Ron et al.[3] The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused. Corrected Figure 4B: For the sake of completion, Figure 1 is also adjusted with the values of β and c in nm−1 and ln|J| on the y-axis for consistency: [1] H. Yan, A. J. Bergren, R. McCreery, M. L.
