Fig. 5: Mechanically controlled switching measurements.

a Schematics of the single-NDITTF-SHe molecule junctions formed during the STM tip-substrate displacement modulation. b Piezo displacement as a function of time (top) and 2D conductance-time histograms obtained during displacement modulations. The 2D histogram is constructed from 733 traces selected out of total 20,000 traces. c Line profiles comparing the conductance in different regions.
