Popis: Coherent tunneling electron transport through molecular wires has been theoretically established as a temperature-independent process. Although several experimental studies have shown counter examples, robust models to describe this temperature dependence have not been thoroughly developed. Here, we demonstrate that dynamic molecular structures lead to temperature-dependent conductance within coherent tunneling regime. Using a custom-built variable-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy break-junction instrument, we find that oligo[
