Unexpected current-voltage characteristics of mechanically modulated atomic contacts with the presence of molecular junctions in an electrochemically assisted-MCBJ

In this article, we report on the characterization of various molecular junctions' current-voltage characteristics (Ⅰ-Ⅴ curves) evolution under mechanical modulations, by employing a novel electrochemically assisted-mechanically controllable break junction (EC-MCBJ) method. For 1,4-benzenedithiol, t...

description In this article, we report on the characterization of various molecular junctions' current-voltage characteristics (Ⅰ-Ⅴ curves) evolution under mechanical modulations, by employing a novel electrochemically assisted-mechanically controllable break junction (EC-MCBJ) method. For 1,4-benzenedithiol, the Ⅰ-Ⅴ curves measured at constant electrode pair separation show excellent reproducibility, indicating the feasibility of our EC-MCBJ method for fabricating molecular junctions. For ferrocene-bisvinylphenylmethyl dithiol (Fc-VPM), an anomalous type of Ⅰ-Ⅴ curve was observed by the particular control over the stepping motor. This phenomenon is rationalized assuming a model of atomic contact evolution with the presence of molecular junctions. To test this hypothesized model, a molecule with a longer length, 1,3-butadiyne-linked dinuclear ruthenium(H) complex (Ru-1), was implemented, and the Ⅰ-Ⅴ curve evolution was investigated under similar circumstances. Compared with Fc-VPM, the observed Ⅰ-Ⅴ curves show close analogy and minor differences, and both of them fit the hypothesized model well.
