Significant progress has been made both in experimentation and in theoretical modeling of
scanning probe microscopy. The theoretical models used to analyze and interpret …

The current status and future prospects of non‐contact atomic force microscopy (nc‐AFM)
and Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) for studying insulating surfaces and thin …

Triangulene, the smallest triplet-ground-state polybenzenoid (also known as Clar's
hydrocarbon), has been an enigmatic molecule ever since its existence was first …

Ultrathin insulating NaCl films have been employed to decouple individual pentacene
molecules electronically from the metallic substrate. This allows the inherent electronic …

The nature and control of individual metal atoms on insulators are of great importance in
emerging atomic-scale technologies. Individual gold atoms on an ultrathin insulating sodium …

Norzoanthamine, an alkaloid isolated from Zoanthus sp., can suppress the loss of bone
weight and strength in ovariectomized mice. Norzoanthamine derivatives can also strongly …

Quantitative measurements of frequency shift vs distance curves of ultrahigh-vacuum force
microscopy in a noncontact mode are presented. Different contributions from electrostatic …

We report on the formation of a metal-molecule complex that can be used as a molecular
switch. Using a cryogenic scanning tunneling microscope, a covalent bond was formed …

Atomically resolved dynamic force microscopy (DFM) images of step and kink sites of NaCl
films grown on the Cu (111) surface are presented. Combining experimental results with an …

In the submonolayer island growth of NaCl on Ag (100) two orientations, 0° and 45°, of the
NaCl unit cell with respect to the substrate are observed by scanning tunneling microscopy …
