摘要
A further component for molecular electronics: A single molecule insulator is realized by immobilizing a platinum(II) complex between two gold electrodes (see picture). The current/voltage characteristics of the setup shows the typical behavior of an insulator with a tunnel barrier height of 2.5 eV.
