A low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is used to investigate the electronic states and the STM-induced light emission from naphtalenediimide cyclophane molecules on Ag(111). The cyclophane consists of two parallel π-systems, one of which is adsorbed directly at the metal substrate while the other chromophore is hoped to be partially decoupled from the surface. This intra-molecular decoupling scheme complements previous approaches where molecular multilayers or dielectrics were used. Spectra of the light emission from a single cyclophane layer exhibit molecule-related features and provide information on the excitation processes involved.
