The capabilities of the scanning tunneling microscope as a tool to study the morphology and
structure of adsorbed biomolecules are reviewed in view of recent experimental results …

Since the invention of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM)[1] and atomic force microscopy
(AFM)[2], a new class of local probe microscopes has entered the laboratories around the …

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has greatly contributed to the field of surface science
over the past two decades. Today, the STM is a powerful instrument contributing to the study …

The prospect of manipulating matter on the atomic scale has fascinated scientists for
decades. This fascination may be motivated by scientific and technological opportunities, or …

We have performed the most realistic simulation to date of the operation of a scanning
tunneling microscope. Probe-sample distances from beyond tunneling to actual surface …

With the recent success for the scanning tunneling microscope (STM) has come question of
whether the instrument might be used for material modifications lithography. We embarked …

Atom resolved scanning tunneling microscopy images are known to depend on the nature of
the tip and its interaction with the surface. We present a new method for determining barrier …

Initially invented to image surfaces down to atomic scale, the scanning tunneling microscope
(STM) has been further developed in the last few years to an operative tool, with which …

Apart from its ability to image surfaces with atomic resolution the scanning tunneling
microscope has evolved as a tool to manipulate single atoms and molecules. In this paper …
