The coverage of solid surfaces with atoms and, more recently, with (organic) molecules is a
broad scope area that has received the attention of the scientific community during recent …

Only three elements are ferromagnetic at room temperature: the transition metals iron, cobalt
and nickel. The Stoner criterion explains why iron is ferromagnetic but manganese, for …

The quantum states in small, compact metal clusters are bunched into electronic shells with
electronic orbitals resembling those in atoms, enabling classification of stable clusters as …

Over the past years, the development of magnetic materials has been intensively explored,
both for fundamental research and technological applications. Particularly, several materials …

We demonstrate the charge state of C 60 on a Cu (111) surface can be made optimal, ie,
forming C 60 3-as required for superconductivity in bulk alkali-doped C 60, purely through …

We present an analytical one-dimensional model potential for the description of electronic
interface states that form at the interface between a metal surface and flat-lying adlayers of π …

The modification of the Cu (110) Shockley-type surface state by an adsorbed pentacene
layer was determined using high-resolution angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. It …

The adsorption of buckminsterfullerene (C 60) on metal surfaces has been investigated
extensively for its unique geometric and electronic properties. The two-dimensional systems …

High kinetic energy impacts between inorganic surfaces and molecular beams seeded by
organics represent a fundamental tool in materials science, particularly when they activate …

We address the dispersion force in a C 60/Au (111) interface using the van der Waals
density functional with improved exchange [VR Cooper, Phys. Rev. B 81, 161104 (R)(2010) …
