The growth of rubrene (C42H28, 5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphthacene) multilayer islands up to a thickness of six layers on a Au(111) surface has been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy. The molecules self-organize in parallel twin rows, forming mirr ...
The shape evolution of epitaxially grown InAs/GaAs(001) quantum dots after the controlled removal of material by an in situ etching gas is investigated by atomic force and scanning tunneling microscopy. The presence of {137} facets on the surface of partia ...
The self-assembly of sexiphenyl-dicarbonitrile molecules on the Ag(111) surface is investigated using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in ultrahigh vacuum. Several nanoporous networks with varying symmetry and pore size coexist on the su ...
The damping behavior of bent fiber near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) probes operating in tapping mode oscillation is investigated in air and water. We show that the significant drop in probe quality factor Q, which occurs at the air-water inter ...
Nanostructure ZnO hollow microspheres with average crystallite size of about 15 nm, and average diameters of about 1 mu m, were successfully fabricated through a novel hydrothermal method. Hollow microspheres were formed due to self-assembly of ZnO oblong ...
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of thiolated molecules have numerous potential applications and are ideal models for complex supramolecular systems. The structure of these two-dimensional crystals is not understood fully yet and deserves in-depth investig ...
Terephthalic acid (TPA) deposited on Si(111)-7 x 7, Si(111)-root 3 x root 3-Ag and Ag(111) has been studied as a model system to understand how much passivated semiconductor surfaces differ from semiconductor and metal surfaces in respect of supramolecular ...
In this thesis, we present Scanning Tunneling Microscopy investigations of two-dimensional supramolecular architectures and metallic nanostructures on pre-structured surfaces. We studied different self-assembled supramolecular architectures formed by linea ...
Submonolayer epitaxial growth is obtained by the deposition of less than a complete layer of atoms on a single crystal surface. It is of fundamental interest for industrial applications (e.g. in the semiconductor industry) as well as from the point of view ...
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 ...
