Constructing two-dimensional molecular networks on metal and semiconducting surfaces : a scanning tunneling microscopy study
(2019)The synthesis of two-dimensional organic nanostructures on metal and semiconducting surfaces is studied under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions. Three halogenated organic molecules are investigated using scanning tunneling ... -
Gold-induced nanostructuring of silicon surfaces
(2005)In this thesis, a combination of scanning tunneling microscopy and low energy electron diffraction is used to investigate how submonolayer amounts of Au affect the large scale surface morphology of a vicinal Si sample ... -
Investigation of the Au-induced morphology of 3.8 and 12.3 degree silicon surfaces / by Wei Wu.
(2007)We have used a combination of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low energy electron diffraction to investigate the Au-induced morphology of vicinal Si samples miscut from (111) by 3.8°, and 12.3° toward [112]. The ... -
Observation of bilayer growth in the initial epitaxy of pseudomorphic Mg on Mo(001)
(1999)Epitaxial growth of thin films on solid substrates is of great interest because it allows for the creation of materials with morphologies and chemical compositions which are not found in nature. The size o f electronic ... -
Ordered supramolecular oligothiophene structures on passivated silicon surfaces
(2014)The adsorption of brominated tetrathienoanthracene molecules (TBTTA) onto the Si(111) 3-Ag surface has been studied. The molecules were absorbed at room temperature and annealed up to 400C. One monolayer of Ag was used to ... -
Self-assembly of dithiol monolayers on Au(III)
(2001)This thesis compares the self-assembly of octanethiol, a representative n-alkanethiol, with dithiothreitol (DTT) on Au (lll). Octanethiol is on eight carbon n-alkanethiol while DTT is a four carbon Q ,(i) dithiol ... -
Thin gold films grown in ultra high vacuum on mica substrates
(2003)In-situ evaporation was used to deposit thin gold films (640 A) on mica substrates held at room temperature. The samples were characterized by Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES) and Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) ...
