Molecular tips for scanning tunneling microscopy: intermolecular electron tunneling for single-molecule recognition and electronics.
This paper reviews the development of molecular tips for scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Molecular tips offer many advantages: first is their ability to perform chemically selective imaging because of chemical interactions between the sample and the molecular tip, thus improving a major drawback of conventional STM. Rational design of the molecular tip allows sophisticated chemical recogni...

متن کاملThe First NanoSquare Conference of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Single Molecule Analyses by Molecular Tips for Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
Understanding electron transport through a single molecule is of fundamental importance for molecular electronics. Recently, there have been significant advances in the measurement of electron transport through a single molecule [1]. One of the next challenges toward the realization of molecular electronic devices lies in measuring electron transport between single molecules interacting with ea...
متن کاملCarbon nanotube scanning tunneling microscopy tips for chemically selective imaging.
Carboxyl-terminated single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were successfully immobilized from solution phases onto the apexes of gold tips for scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Gold STM tips were first modified with self-assembled monolayers of 4-mercaptobenzoic acid, and its carboxyl groups were used to anchor carboxylated SWNTs through Zn2+ ion-bridged coordination. These SWNT tips gave hi...
متن کاملSecondary Electron Trajectories in Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
The recently developed technique Scanning Tunneling Microscopy in the Field Emission regime (STM FE) is based on the Russell Young's topografiner technology [1]. The set-up is a no contacting device consisting of a sharp tip approached vertically to a conducting surface at variable distances and biased with a small voltage with respect to the surface (Figure 1). The system builds a junction acr...
