Molecular Junctions Using Epitaxial Monolayer Graphene Electrodes — •Konrad Ullmann, Daniel Waldmann, Stefan Ballmann, and Heiko Weber — Lehrstuhl für Angewandte Physik, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany

We report on a method to fabricate epitaxial monolayer graphene electrodes with nanometer separation grown on silicon carbide. The nanometer-gap is formed by feedback controlled electroburning of carbon atoms in presence of oxygen. A gapsize of approximately 1nm is extracted from the tunneling current.

Using these gaps we are able to form molecular junctions. Subsequently I-V measurements of a molecule possessing fullerene anchor groups exhibit prominent peaks in differential conductance, which is typical for single-molecule junctions.
