We use low energy electron diffraction, scanning tunneling microscopy, first-principles density-functional theory, and molecular mechanics calculations to analyze the adsorption and growth of quinacridone derivatives (QA) with alkyl chains of 4 and 16 . . .

Adsorption behavior of iron(II) phthalocyanine (FePc) on Au(111) surface at submonolayer coverage has been investigated using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. At the initial adsorpti . . .

The weakly interacting interface, perylene on Ag(110), has been systematically investigated in detail with molecular-beam epitaxy and low-energy-electron diffraction (LEED), low-temperature-scanning-tunneling microscopy (STM), and first-principles cal . . .

Adsorption behavior of iron(II) phthalocyanine (FePc) on Au(111) surface at submonolayer coverage has been investigated using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. At the initial adsorpti . . .

The self-assembly behavior of the mixture of tetra-tert-butyl zinc(II) phthalocyanine (TB-ZnPc) isomers on a Au(111) surface has been investigated by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Four tert-butyl groups are added to four peripheral ben . . .

This study examined changes in sexual functioning and mood disturbance among women who have been treated for gynecological cancer and who participated in a 12-week group intervention for psychosexual problems. The Changes in Sexual Functioning Questio . . .

The electrical transport properties of nanosystems, including a few kinds of nanowires, have attracted much attention because of their potential application in nanoelectronics. However, the contact effect or impurities between the nanosystems and elec . . .

Selective analysis of molecular states in scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has so far been achieved in a few cases by tuning the bias range of the STM in high-resolution measurements. Correspondingly, perylene adsorbed in a close-packed monolayer o . . .

We report on the structural evolution at the initial growth stage of perylene thin films on Au(1 1 1) surface. Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy have been employed to investigate the structural and electronic properties at 78 K. Rapid mol . . .

We demonstrate a special four-probe scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) system in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV), which can provide coarse positioning for every probe independently with the help of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and fine positioning down . . .
