A pyrazine molecular junction was investigated using mechanically controllable break junction (MCBJ) technique at 10 K. The conductance measurements revealed the single pyrazine molecular junctions showed two distinct conductance values of 0.27 ± 0.04 and 1.0 ± 0.2G0(2e2/h). The conductance value of the single pyrazine molecular junction was comparable with that of the metal atomic junction. The interface between pyrazine molecule and Pt surface was investigated by near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS). The broadening of the π* peak in N K-edge NEXAFS spectra suggested that the pyrazine molecule connected to Pt surface via a nitrogen atom. Based on the measurements of the conductance and NEXAFS, we could propose the structural models of two distinct conductance states for the single pyrazine molecular junction.
