Single molecule junctions using graphene as electrode material have drawn considerable attention in recent years [1,2]. Due to their open access architecture, their transparency and robustness, they are well suited for a variety of unprecedented experiments. The electrode material graphene also allows for new anchor groups which connect the molecule to the electrode, e.g. via Pi-interaction.
We report on experiments using an oligoyne molecular wire with platinum termination, being contacted with epitaxial graphene nanoelectrodes. I-V characteristics show a linear behavior with a conductance close to the conductance quantum. Furthermore we present an experimental setup which uses electrospray ionisation to bring the molecules in contact with the graphene electrodes.
