The chemical versatility of carbon imparts manifold properties to organic compounds, where
magnetism remains one of the most desirable but elusive. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons …

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was introduced in 1986 and has since made its way into
surface science, nanoscience, chemistry, biology, and material science as an imaging and …

The detection of faint magnetic fields from single-electron and nuclear spins at the atomic
scale is a long-standing challenge in physics. While current mobile quantum sensors …

High-resolution atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM)
imaging with functionalized tips is well established, but a detailed understanding of the …

Written by three leading experts in the field, this book describes and explains all essential
aspects of scanning probe microscopy. Emphasis is placed on the experimental design and …

Individual pentacene and naphthalocyanine molecules adsorbed on a bilayer of NaCl
grown on Cu (111) were investigated by means of scanning tunneling microscopy using CO …

Photoemission spectroscopy is commonly applied to study the band structure of solids by
measuring the kinetic energy versus angular distribution of the photoemitted electrons. Here …

Recently, the family of high-resolution scanning probe imaging techniques using decorated
