We have investigated the electron transport in single molecule transistor (SMT) under terahertz (THz) radiation. By employing an antenna structure with a sub-nm-wide gap, we concentrate the THz radiation onto a single molecule. The THz field induced at the molecule is enhanced by a factor of ~10⁵ from the field in the free space. THz-induced vibron-assisted transport in single-Ce@C₈₂ molecule transistors is observed.
