Capillarity is pivotal to many important technologies, including capillary self-alignment and self-assembly for heterogeneous microsystem integration and packaging. Lateral capillary forces ensuing from perturbed fluid menisci were the object of substantia ...
Coverage-dependent self-assembly of rubrene molecules on different noble metal surfaces, Au(111) and Au(100), Ag(111) and Ag(100), is presented. On Au(111), the homochiral supramolecular assemblies evolve with increasing rubrene coverage from very small st ...
This thesis deals with the supramolecular organization of chiral aminoacids and dipeptides on metal surfaces. The emergence of homochirality in biomolecular systems is one of the most intriguing open questions of Nature. The self-assembly and amplification ...
We demonstrate a simple and fast method for self-assembly-driven micropatterning of protein functionalized magnetic beads on glass. We use positively charged aminosilane micro-patterns as template for selective immobilization of streptavidin-coated beads b ...
The self-assembly of aromatic carboxylic acids and cesium adatoms on a Cu(100) surface at room temperature has been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The highly ordered molecular nanostructures are comprise ...
In the framework of this thesis self-assembled supramolecular architectures of several molecular species on crystal metal surfaces are characterized. These investigations combine results obtained by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), scanning tu ...
We report here a simple method, based on electrostatic self-assembly, for realizing bead-based single protein micro-arrays. We generate positively charged surface micro-patterns on a glass substrate and use them as template for adsorbing negatively-charged ...
Self-assembly of organic molecules represents an efficient and convenient bottom-up approach for the structural functionalization of surfaces at the nanometer scale. The great potential of assembling supramolecular architectures from organic molecules lies ...
This thesis deals with the self-organization of individual building blocks, specifically organic molecules and metal atoms, into supramolecular structures on metal surfaces under ultra high vacuum conditions (UHV). Self-organization of supramolecular syste ...
Molecular self-assembly at metal surfaces has been recognized as an efficient strategy to create supramolecular nanoarchitectures with promising functionalities. The focus of this thesis lies on the strong electron accepting molecule 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquin ...
