Single molecular switches: Electrochemical gating of a single anthraquinone-based norbornylogous bridge molecule

Herein we report the electrochemical gating of a single anthraquinone-based molecule bridged between two gold electrodes using the STM break-junction technique. Once a molecule is trapped between the STM gold tip and the gold substrate, the potential is swept in order to alternate between the oxidiz...
