In this thesis, the use of nanotemplates for steering the molecular self-organization at metallic surfaces is investigated. Nanotemplates are surfaces that exhibit a periodic variation of the adhesion energy on the nanometer scale. Preferential adsorption ...
This thesis presents the first experimental results of a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) investigation of rubrene at the supramolecular, molecular and submolecular level. Based on its semiconducting and fluores ...
Nanometer light source: Interaction between high-affinity binding sites on lipid-coated nanocrystals (NCs) and different proteins enables the controlled formation of supramol. nanostructures on micropatterned surfaces. The NCs serve as local light sources ...
In this thesis we report investigations on supramolecular architectures assembled at well-defined metal surfaces. Supramolecular chemistry is dedicated to the study and use of non-covalent interactions to build highly organized molecular arrangements, aimi ...
We present investigations on noncovalent bonding and supramolecular self-assembly of two related molecular building blocks at a noble metal surface: 4-[trans-2-(pyrid-4-yl-vinyl)]benzoic acid (PVBA) and 4-[(pyrid-4-yl-ethynyl)]benzoic acid (PEBA). These ri ...
A detailed study of the supramolecular organization of two series of peptide-based diblock oligomers is reported. The diblock oligomers are comprised of an α-helical oligopeptide rod, which is either based on γ-benzyl-L-glutamate or ε-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-l ...
We investigate the dynamical features of the adsorption of diphenylalanine molecules on the Cu(I 10) surface and of their assembling into supramolecular structures by a combination of quantum and classical atomistic modeling with dynamic scanning tunneling ...
The development of materials and devices at the nanoscale presents great challenges, from synthesis to assembly to characterization. Often, progress can only be made by complementing work with electronic-structure modeling, harnessing the efficiency, predi ...
This thesis is concerned with supramolecular architectures assembled at metal surfaces. The investigations pursued two objectives. On the one hand, the focus was placed on the fabrication of low-dimensional surface-supported network structures by applying ...
Using a density-functional scheme, we study the structural and vibrational properties of vitreous germanium diselenide (v-GeSe2). Through the use of classical and first-principles molecular-dynamics methods, we generate a set of structural models showing a ...
