Herein, we introduced single molecule conductance measurement (SMCM) technology to probe the conductance of three-model emitting molecules on the Au surface, finding that their hole transporting ability across the metal-molecule interface can be suppressed after electron-withdrawing arms are connected to the center component.  The electronic structure variation between molecules could also be revealed by photophysical measurement, electrochemical analysis, and density functional theory (DFT) simulations, which give supportive evidence of the SMCM result.
