Two-Dimensional Nanostructured Growth of Nanoclusters and Molecules on Insulating Surfaces

Noncontact atomic force microscopy (nc‐AFM), Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) and first principle calculations show that the nanostructured (001) Suzuki surface of Cd2+ doped NaCl can be used to confine the growth of palladium clusters and functionalized brominated pentahelicene molecules into o...

More Information
Summary:Noncontact atomic force microscopy (nc‐AFM), Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) and first principle calculations show that the nanostructured (001) Suzuki surface of Cd2+ doped NaCl can be used to confine the growth of palladium clusters and functionalized brominated pentahelicene molecules into only the Suzuki regions, which contain the impurities. The Suzuki surface is an ideal model surface for nanostructuring metal clusters and molecules.
