Of widespread interest in fundamental studies and real-world applications, they have also attracted some interest as functional elements of molecular-scale devices. Here we investigate the impact of the configurational degrees of freedom of a ferrocene derivative on its single-molecule junction conductance. Measurements indicate that the conductance of the ferrocene derivative, which is suppressed by 2 orders of magnitude as compared to a fully conjugated analogue, can be modulated by altering the junction configuration. Ab initio transport calculations show that the low conductance is a consequence of destructive quantum interference effects of the Fano type that arise from the hybridization of localized metal-based d-orbitals and the delocalized ligand-based π-system. By rotation of the Cp rings, the hybridization, and thus the quantum interference, can be mechanically controlled, resulting in a conductance modulation that is seen experimentally.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"last_name":"Camarasa-Gómez","full_name":"Camarasa-Gómez, María","first_name":"María"},{"last_name":"Hernangómez-Pérez","first_name":"Daniel","full_name":"Hernangómez-Pérez, Daniel"},{"full_name":"Inkpen, Michael S.","first_name":"Michael S.","last_name":"Inkpen"},{"full_name":"Lovat, Giacomo","first_name":"Giacomo","last_name":"Lovat"},{"last_name":"Fung","first_name":"E-Dean","full_name":"Fung, E-Dean"},{"full_name":"Roy, Xavier","first_name":"Xavier","last_name":"Roy"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-6957-6089","id":"9ebb78a5-cc0d-11ee-8322-fae086a32caf","last_name":"Venkataraman","full_name":"Venkataraman, Latha","first_name":"Latha"},{"last_name":"Evers","full_name":"Evers, Ferdinand","first_name":"Ferdinand"}],"publisher":"American Chemical Society","_id":"17908","extern":"1","OA_place":"repository"}
