The superexchange mechanism in cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) thin films was studied by a
low temperature scanning tunneling microscope. The CoPc molecules were found to form …

Electrically driven molecular light emitters are considered to be one of the promising
candidates as single-photon sources. However, it is yet to be demonstrated that electrically …

Nanostructured surfaces can be broadly defined as substrates in which the typical features
have dimensions in the range 1–100 nm (although the upper limit of 100 nm may be relaxed …

The discovery of graphene opened a door for manufacturing and investigating two-
dimensional (2D) materials. After more than ten years of development, 2D materials have …

In molecular tunnel junctions, where the molecule is decoupled from the electrodes by few-
monolayers-thin insulating layers, resonant charge transport takes place by sequential …

The interactions of the excited states of a single chromophore with static and dynamic
electric fields spatially varying at the atomic scale are investigated in a joint experimental …

A scanning tunneling microscope was used to study the electron transport through individual
copper phthalocyanine molecules adsorbed on an ultrathin Al 2 O 3 film grown on a NiAl …

Recently scanning probe microscopy has made tremendous progress in imaging organic
molecules with high lateral resolution. Atoms and bonds within individual molecules have …

Single-molecule vibrational Raman spectroscopy of malachite green adsorbed on planar
metal surfaces is achieved by means of optical local-field enhancement provided by a …

Vibronic coupling is a central issue in molecular spectroscopy. Here we investigate vibronic
coupling within a single pentacene molecule in real space by imaging the spatial distribution …
