In the framework of this thesis molecular nanostructures have been engineered on surfaces and are characterized using a variety of techniques. Two types of molecules have been used: carbon nanotubes (CNT) and 4-[trans-2-(pyrid-4-yl-vinyl)] benzoic acid (PV ...
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 ...
We report here a simple method, based on electrostatic self-assembly, for realizing bead-based single protein microarrays. We generate positively-charged surface micro-patterns on a glass substrate and used them as the template for adsorbing negatively-cha ...
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 ...
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 ...
We report scanning tunneling microscopy observations on the formation of 2D Co-based coordination compounds on the reconstructed Au(111) surface. Preorganized arrays of Co bilayer islands are shown to be local reaction sites, which are consumed in the form ...
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 ...
Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), we demonstrate that a free (2]catenane consisting of two interlocking 30-membered rings (cat-30) can be deposited on ...
Scanning tunneling microscopy reveals, at single-molecular resolution, how external parameters-substrate morphology and guest addition-re-direct the assembly of dumbbell-shaped coordination supramolecules towards different surfaceconfined supramolecular or ...
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 ...
