The metallation of tetrapyrroles at well-defined surfaces under ultra-high vacuum conditions represents an unconventional synthesis approach to achieve tetrapyrrole-based metal …
The van der Waals density functional (vdW-DF) of M. Dion [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 246401 (2004)] PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett. 92.246401 is a promising approach for …
Bottom-up strategies can be effectively implemented for the fabrication of atomically precise graphene nanoribbons. Recently, using 10, 10′-dibromo-9, 9′-bianthracene (DBBA) as a …

The templated synthesis of porphyrin dimers, oligomers, and tapes has recently attracted considerable interest. Here, we introduce a clean, temperature-induced covalent …
The direct coupling of complex, functional organic molecules at a surface is one of the outstanding challenges in the road map to future molecular devices. Equally demanding is …
The molecule–substrate interaction plays a key role in charge injection organic-based devices. Charge transfer at molecule–metal interfaces strongly affects the overall physical …
We investigated the surface bonding and ordering of free-base porphine (2H-P), the parent compound of all porphyrins, on a smooth noble metal support. Our multitechnique …
Suitable templates to steer the formation of nanostructure arrays on surfaces are indispensable in nanoscience. Recently, atomically thin sp2-bonded layers such as …
A density functional theory study of a cobalt (II) octaethylporphyrin (CoOEP) monolayer on Au (111) and HOPG (0001) surfaces was performed under periodic boundary conditions …
