Scanning Tunneling Microscopy for Molecules: Effects of Electron Propagation into Vacuum

Klaus Kern, Abhishek Grewal

Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), we experimentally and theoretically investigate isolated platinum phthalocyanine (PtPc) molecules adsorbed on an atomically thin NaCl(100) film vapor deposited on Au(111). We obtain good agreement between theory a ...

Quadrupolar susceptibility modeling of substrated metasurfaces with application to the generalized Brewster effect

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Ville Tuovi Tiukuvaara

We derive generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) including dipoles and quadrupoles, using generalized functions (distributions). This derivation verifies that the GSTCs are valid for metasurfaces in non-homogeneous environments, such as for practi ...

Gigahertz Frame Rate Imaging of Charge-Injection Dynamics in a Molecular Light Source

Klaus Kern, Markus Etzkorn, Anna Maria Roslawska, Abhishek Grewal

Light sources on the scale of single molecules can be addressed and characterized at their proper sub-nanometer scale by scanning tunneling microscopy-induced luminescence (STML). Such a source can be driven by defined short charge pulses while the lumines ...

Scanning Probe-Directed Assembly and Rapid Chemical Writing Using Nanoscopic Flow of Phospholipids

Vytautas Navikas

Nanofluidic systems offer a huge potential for discovery of new molecular transport and chemical phenomena that can be employed for future technologies. Herein, we report on the transport behavior of surface-reactive compounds in a nanometer-scale flow of ...

Carbohydrate Self-Assembly at Surfaces: STM Imaging of Sucrose Conformation and Ordering on Cu(100)

Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Sabine Abb

Saccharides are ubiquitous biomolecules, but little is known about their interaction with, and assembly at, surfaces. By combining preparative mass spectrometry with scanning tunneling microscopy, we have been able to address the conformation and self-asse ...

Polymorphism in carbohydrate self-assembly at surfaces: STM imaging and theoretical modelling of trehalose on Cu(100)

Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Sabine Abb

Saccharides, also commonly known as carbohydrates, are ubiquitous biomolecules, but little is known about their interaction with surfaces. Soft-landing electrospray ion beam deposition in conjunction with high-resolution imaging by scanning tunneling micro ...

Band Gap of Atomically Precise Graphene Nanoribbons as a Function of Ribbon Length and Termination

Christoph Leopold Talirz, Daniele Passerone

We study the band gap of finite NA=7 armchair graphene nanoribbons (7-AGNRs) on Au(111) through scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy combined with density functional theory calculations. The band gap of 7-AGNRs with lengths of 8 nm and more is conver ...

WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2019

The efficiency and peculiarities of processes such as surface adsorption or electron-to-photon energy conversion in organic and inorganic structures are determined by the dynamics at the scale of individual molecules, atoms and charges. The timescales of s ...

DORI Reveals the Influence of Noncovalent Interactions on Covalent Bonding Patterns in Molecular Crystals Under Pressure

Berend Smit, Benjamin André René Meyer, Senja Dominique Barthel, Laurent Alexis Clément Vannay, Amber Kashan Mace

The study of organic molecular crystals under high pressure provides fundamental insight into crystal packing distortions and reveals mechanisms of phase transitions and the crystallization of polymorphs. These solid-state transformations can be monitored ...
