Tuning Single-Molecule Conductance by Controlled Electric Field-Induced <i>trans</i>-to-<i>cis</i> Isomerisation

External electric fields (EEFs) have proven to be very efficient in catalysing chemical reactions, even those inaccessible via wet-chemical synthesis. At the single-molecule level, oriented EEFs have been successfully used to promote in situ single-molecule reactions in the absence of chemical catal...
