Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) monolayers have attracted considerable interest as
atomically thin sp 2-hybridized sheets that are readily synthesized on various metal …

Using scanning probe microscopy techniques, at low temperatures and in ultrahigh vacuum,
individual molecules adsorbed on surfaces can be probed with ultrahigh resolution to …

Structural defects in 2D materials offer an effective way to engineer new material
functionalities beyond conventional doping. We report on the direct experimental correlation …

Electron transfer (ET) from donor to acceptor is often mediated by nuclear-electronic
(vibronic) interactions in molecular bridges. Using an ultrafast electronic-vibrational …

Graphene nanostructures, where quantum confinement opens an energy gap in the band
structure, hold promise for future electronic devices. To realize the full potential of these …

Trajectory-based mixed quantum-classical approaches to coupled electron–nuclear
dynamics suffer from well-studied problems such as the lack of (or incorrect account for) …

Molecular self-assembly is a well-known technique to create highly functional
nanostructures on surfaces. Self-assembly on two-dimensional (2D) materials is a …

Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) hold great promise for applications in electronics,
optoelectronics, and bioelectronics, but the fabrication of widely tunable GQDs has …

Charge transport through molecular junctions is often described either as a purely coherent
or a purely classical phenomenon, and described using the Landauer–Büttiker formalism or …

Semiconducting π-conjugated polymers have attracted significant interest for applications in
light-emitting diodes, field-effect transistors, photovoltaics, and nonlinear optoelectronic …
