摘要
Geometries of molecule-molecule interfaces strongly influence the current passing from one molecule to another. The contact conductance of molecule-molecule junctions which consist of fullerene and tin phthalocyanine molecules is investigated with a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope. Two types of molecules are deposited onto Cu(111). Fullerene molecules are transferred to tips through controlled contact of STM tips on molecules. The molecule-molecule junctions are formed by approaching fullereneterminated tips to tin phthalocyanine molecules on Cu(111). Our experimental method can be extended to study the intermolecular charge transport of a range of molecular junctions.
