  bibo_abstract:
  - The idea of using individual molecules as active electronic components provided
    the impetus to develop a variety of experimental platforms to probe their electronic
    transport properties. Among these, single-molecule junctions in a metal–molecule–metal
    motif have contributed significantly to our fundamental understanding of the principles
    required to realize molecular-scale electronic components from resistive wires
    to reversible switches. The success of these techniques and the growing interest
    of other disciplines in single-molecule-level characterization are prompting new
    approaches to investigate metal–molecule–metal junctions with multiple probes.
    Going beyond electronic transport characterization, these new studies are highlighting
    both the fundamental and applied aspects of mechanical, optical and thermoelectric
    properties at the atomic and molecular scales. Furthermore, experimental demonstrations
    of quantum interference and manipulation of electronic and nuclear spins in single-molecule
    circuits are heralding new device concepts with no classical analogues. In this
    Review, we present the emerging methods being used to interrogate multiple properties
    in single molecule-based devices, detail how these measurements have advanced
    our understanding of the structure–function relationships in molecular junctions,
    and discuss the potential for future research and applications.@eng
