We present the functionalization of a plasmonic scanning probe tip with a single fluorescent molecule. The functionalization is performed by mechanically attaching an individual PTCDA molecule to the tip’s apex atoms in an upright standing configuration. The electroluminescent character of the singly negatively charged PTCDA is preserved, despite the molecule’s direct contact with a metal electrode. We characterize the change in luminescence caused by different plasmonic tips, changing cavity geometries and varying bias voltage. Furthermore, we discuss theoretical considerations unraveling the photon emission mechanism.

The presented system showcases the possibility to use single molecules as nanoscale sensors able to retrieve optical properties of samples at the atomic scale.
