      abstract     = {The further miniaturization of electronic devices is a
                      strong driving force in science. Since a few decades systems
                      based on organic materials are studied. One goal is to
                      create applications performed nowadays by silicon based CMOS
                      technology with organic materials. In these studies the
                      interest is placed upon diverse properties of the organic
                      molecules, such as their electronic, geometric, thermal,
                      optical, and electroluminescence characteristics. One of the
                      main problems of these studies is the lack of geometrical
                      control of the systems during the measurements. As the
                      physical properties critically depend on the exact geometry,
                      contradictory results are found in literature. To overcome
                      this lack of control, this work introduces a new method
                      which allows transport studies on single molecules with
                      highly controlled junction geometries. The concept of this
                      method, which is based on scanning probe methods, will be
                      presented as well as its realization. The method will be
                      applied to molecule-metal junctions with molecules of
                      different lengths which are contacted by different metal
                      electrodes. It will be shown that highly reproducible
                      experiments can be performed. Furthermore, the physical
                      interpretation of the measurements will be discussed. It
                      will be demonstrated that the profound knowledge of the
                      geometry in these junctions helps to get a better
                      understanding of the transport properties.},
