Abstract
In this dissertation, we analyse the charge transport of nanoscale molecular junctions in mechanically controllable break junction (MCBJ) experiments. In particular, we focus on the characterization of molecular features going beyond the "single-peak" picture, that is, considering features in the measurements in addition to themost prominent one. To achieve this goal, we use a combination of improved experimental techniques and data analysis...
