Incorporation of main group elements into the π-conjugated frameworks is a sophisticated
strategy to alter the fundamental nature of the parent conjugated π-systems, giving rise to …

This review aims at giving the readers the basic concepts needed to understand two-
dimensional bimolecular organizations at the vacuum–solid interface. The first part …

Metal-organic nanostructures on surfaces have attracted considerable attention owing to
their structural stability and potential applications. In metal-organic nanostructures, metal …

Minimalistic heteroaromatic scaffolds result from the introduction of various ortho‐bridging
moieties into triarylboranes,‐silanes,‐amines, and‐phosphines. This molecular design …

A series of selectively cyanated spirofluorene‐bridged N‐heterotriangulenes (N‐HTAs) with
three to nine cyano groups are synthesized via a newly developed synthetic strategy. X‐ray …

On-surface molecular self-assembly presents an important approach to the development of
low-dimensional functional nanostructures and nanomaterials. Traditional strategies …

Phthalocyanines possess unique optical and electronic properties and thus are widely used
in (opto) electronic devices, coatings, photodynamic therapy, etc. Extension of their π …

The design of a well‐ordered arrangement of atoms on a solid surface has long been sought
due to the envisioned applications in many different fields. On‐surface synthesis of metal …

The self-assembly behavior of a V-shaped bispyridine, 1, 3-bi (4-pyridyl) benzene (BPyB),
was studied by scanning tunneling microscopy on the (111) surfaces of Cu, Ag, and Au …

The interplay between the self‐assembly and surface chemistry of 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11‐
hexaaminotriphenylene (HATP) on Cu (111) was complementarily studied by high …
