Control over the electrical contact to an individual molecule is one of the biggest challenges in molecular optoelectronics. Chemical route of anchoring individual chromophores via extended tripodal scaffolds is a promising approach for efficient electrical decoupling from metallic leads [1]. Here, we show that NDI chromophores coupled to a gold substrate via a tripodal scaffold and via a vacuum barrier to the tip of a scanning tunnelling microscope enable spectrally and spatially resolved electroluminescence. We show that specific vibrons of the chromophore which are mechanically decoupled from the substrate give rise to hot-luminescence (HL) bands. Vibrons which are coupled to the substrate do not show HL.
