Charge transfer in phenylene ethynylene oligomers (OPEs), using realistically estimated effective model parameters from first principles is studied by a combined, ab initio and model approach. The aim of our work is to investigate the Coulomb correlation effects on conductance switching in OPEs. In the proposed model, molecular electronic system is restricted to one-level coupled to metallic leads, described by a two-site Hubbard Hamiltonian. Comparison of the current-voltage curves, obtained from rate equations, for the planar and perpendicular conformer, clearly demonstrates enhancement of the switching process due to two-particle correlations.
