I am working on a project, however I am having trouble finding the right material for it to work. I am looking for a nano-material or any molecule that will emit a radio frequency when subjected to a voltage or a current at around 37 degrees Celsius. I would really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction, I've never had to find something like this before.

DC voltage? I would be surprised if such a thing exists (neglecting thermal emissions). If your voltage source has the right frequency then it gets easier, but then I would simply use a conventional antenna.
What do you want to do?
 
Well, it's a long shot... But what I'm hoping to do is put it into a neuron. As the ions flow into an throughout the axon I'm hoping a current (if strong enough) can be generated and cause the emission of radio frequency.
I could be wrong here, but I believe this may result in a half cycle, but I don know to what frequency.

Think it could work?

Other than that my only shot would be to enhance natural radio emissions with nano antennas.

Any thoughts?
 
I change my mind:
Maybe 1 cycle in the axon and a weird 1.5 cycles through the membrane? its not your standard cycle but i believe it meets the definition, still a total guess though.

Does such a molecule really not exist though?!?
