Self-assembly of melem on Au(111) and Ag(111): the origin of two different hydrogen bonding configurations.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We studied the self-assembly of melem on the Au(111) and Ag(111) surfaces. By scanning tunneling microscopy imaging, we observed two different STM appearances of the melem molecule within the self-assembled nanostructure on Au(111), which resulted from the different intermolecular bonding configurations. Moreover, further DFT details including the intermolecular charge density difference and bonding energy were also obtained to compare the different natures of the intermolecular bonding configurations.

Effects of an electric field on a water bilayer on Ag(111)
Based on first-principles calculations, we studied the effects of an electric field on the water bilayer at the water/Ag 111 interface. We find that the commonly accepted “H-down” configuration is not the ground state under an external field, but instead, the “H-down-flipped” configuration is most stable under a negative E field with the largest spacing between the water and Ag layers, while un...
متن کاملStructure and energetics of hydrogen-bonded networks of methanol on close packed transition metal surfaces.
Methanol is a versatile chemical feedstock, fuel source, and energy storage material. Many reactions involving methanol are catalyzed by transition metal surfaces, on which hydrogen-bonded methanol overlayers form. As with water, the structure of these overlayers is expected to depend on a delicate balance of hydrogen bonding and adsorbate-substrate bonding. In contrast to water, however, relat...
متن کاملSTM Study of Terephthalic Acid Self-Assembly on Au(111): Hydrogen-Bonded Sheets on an Inhomogeneous Substrate†
The adsorption and ordering of the molecule terephthalic acid (TPA), 1,4-benzene-dicarboxylic acid C6H4(COOH)2, on the reconstructed Au(111) surface has been studied in situ in ultrahigh vacuum by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at room temperature. Two-dimensional (2D) self-assembled supramolecular domains evolve, wherein the well-known one-dimensional (1D) carboxyl H-bond pairing scheme i...

The electronic structure at the interfaces of 3,4,9,10-perylene tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) and the metal surfaces Au(111), Ag(111) and Cu(111) was investigated using ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). By combining these results with recent X-ray standing wave data from PTCDA on the same substrates clear correlation between the electronic properties and the interface geometry...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of electronically abrupt borophene/organic lateral heterostructures
Two-dimensional boron sheets (that is, borophene) have recently been realized experimentally and found to have promising electronic properties. Because electronic devices and systems require the integration of multiple materials with well-defined interfaces, it is of high interest to identify chemical methods for forming atomically abrupt heterostructures between borophene and electronically di...
