Imaging, spectroscopy and manipulation of C60 molecules on semiconductor surfaces

Scanning probe microscopy techniques were employed to investigate C60 molecules adsorbed on Si(111)-(7x7) and Ag-Si(111)-(√3x√3)R30o using imaging, spectroscopy, and manipulation methods. First, dynamic scanning tunnelling microscopy revealed the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital features of C60 m...
