Molecular Dynamics in Two-Dimensional Supramolecular Systems Observed by STM
نویسندگان
چکیده
Since the invention of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), 2D supramolecular architectures have been observed under various experimental conditions. The construction of these architectures arises from the balance between interactions at the medium-solid interface. This review summarizes molecular motion observed in 2D-supramolecular structures on surfaces using nanospace resolution STM. The observation of molecular motion on surfaces provides a visual understanding of intermolecular interactions, which are the major driving force behind supramolecular arrangement.

Investigation of Low-dimensional Supramolecular Architectures by Low-temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
In this thesis we report investigations on supramolecular architectures assembled at welldefined metal surfaces. Supramolecular chemistry is dedicated to the study and use of noncovalent interactions to build highly organized molecular arrangements, aiming ultimately at creating systems with tailored properties and useful functions. The adaptation of its powerful principles to fabricate molecul...
متن کاملCoexistence of one- and two-dimensional supramolecular assemblies of terephthalic acid on Pd(111) due to self-limiting deprotonation.
The adsorption of terephthalic acid [C(6)H(4)(COOH)(2), TPA] on a Pd(111) surface has been investigated by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy under ultrahigh vacuum conditions at room temperature. We find the coexistence of one- (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) molecular ordering. Our analysis i...

The study of a two-dimensional (2-D) system started nearly half a century ago when Peierls and Landau showed the lack of long range translational order in a two-dimensional solid. In 1968, Mermin proved that despite the absence of long range translational order. Two-dimensional solids can still exhibit a different kind of long range bond orientation. During the last decade, fascinating theori...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional crystal engineering using halogen and hydrogen bonds: towards structural landscapes.
Two-dimensional (2D) crystallization on solid surfaces is governed by a subtle balance of supramolecular and interfacial interactions. However, these subtle interactions often make the prediction of supramolecular structure from the molecular structure impossible. As a consequence, surface-based 2D crystallization has often been studied on a case-by-case basis, which hinders the identification ...
متن کاملAddressing metal centres in supramolecular assemblies.
Supramolecular metal ion assemblies are deposited from their solutions onto highly orientated pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) substrates to be imaged by scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). Since the structural and electronic information of STM measurements are strongly entangled, the spectroscopic interpretation and analysis of the images of such molecular assemblies has proven to be challenging. T...
