Synthesis and UHV-STM observation of the T(d)-symmetric Lu metallofullerene: Lu2@C76(T(d)).

چکیده
The first T(d)-symmetric lutetium metallofullerene, Lu(2)@C(76), has been synthesized, isolated, and characterized. Because of the charge transfer from the encapsulated Lu atoms to the T(d)-C(76) fullerene cage, the otherwise unstable T(d)-C(76) fullerene can be significantly stabilized as a Lu(2)@C(76) fullerene. Both STM and STS results are consistent with a charge state of (Lu(2))(6+)@C(76)(6-)(T(d)).

Observation of multiple vibrational modes in ultrahigh vacuum tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy combined with molecular-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy.
Multiple vibrational modes have been observed for copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) adlayers on Ag(111) using ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS). Several important new experimental features are introduced in this work that significantly advance the state-of-the-art in UHV-TERS. These include (1) concurrent sub-nm molecular resolution STM imaging using Ag tips with laser il...
متن کاملAutomorphism Group of a Possible 2-(121, 16, 2) Symmetric Design
Let D be a symmetric 2-(121, 16, 2) design with the automorphism group of Aut(D). In this paper the order of automorphism of prime order of Aut(D) is studied, and some results are obtained about the number of fixed points of these automorphisms. Also we will show that |Aut(D)|=2p 3q 5r 7s 11t 13u, where p, q, r, s, t and u are non-negative integers such that r, s, t, u ? 1. In addition we prese...
متن کاملDimetallic sulfide endohedral metallofullerene Sc2S@C76: Density functional theory characterization
In terms of density functional theory combined with statistic mechanics computations, we investigated a dimetallic sulfide endohedral fullerene Sc2S@C76 which has been synthesized without any characterization in experiments. Our theoretical study reveals that Sc2S@Td(19151)-C76 which satisfies the isolated-pentagon rule (IPR) possesses the lowest energy, followed by three non-IPR structures (Sc...
متن کاملبررسی آزمایشگاهی و عددی حساسیت باربری محوری فشاری اعضای لولهای فولادی به ناراستیهای هندسی
In practice, steel tubulars lack a mathematically perfect cylindrical shape, due to non-uniformities introduced during the manufacturing process, construction methods, damages incurred in the transport. The imperfections might exist in the cross section and along the tubular member. Imperfections can greatly affect the behavior of tubular members. The work presented in this paper is perusing ef...
متن کاملScanning tunneling microscopy study and nanomanipulation of graphene-coated water on mica.
We study interfacial water trapped between a sheet of graphene and a muscovite (mica) surface using Raman spectroscopy and ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (UHV-STM) at room temperature. We are able to image the graphene-water interface with atomic resolution, revealing a layered network of water trapped underneath the graphene. We identify water layer numbers with a carbon nanotu...
