Multi-Channel Exploration of O Adatom on TiO2(110) Surface by Scanning Probe Microscopy
We studied the O2 dissociated state under the different O2 exposed temperatures with atomic resolution by scanning probe microscopy (SPM) and imaged the O adatom by simultaneous atomic force microscopy (AFM)/scanning tunneling microscopy (STM).

The Art of Catching and Probing Single Molecules
Probing the electronic properties of an individual molecule is a far from trivial task. In order to measure, for instance, the conductance of a single molecule, the molecule must be contacted by two nanoscopic electrodes.

Surface Chemistry at the Nanometer Scale [PDF]
This thesis describes research towards understanding surface chemical and physical processes, as well as their effects on the underlying substrate properties, at the nanometer and atomic scales. We demonstrate a method to tune the density of etch pits on

Scanning tunneling microscopy.
Abstract Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) is a new method for studying surface phenomena in semiconductors and metals on an atomic scale. A metal tip is scanned over the surface at such a small distance that a tunneling current in the nanoamp range flows under application of a voltage between tip and sample. Surface areas are scanned by moving the

Spectroscopic signature of the Stark-shifted Tamm-type surface state of La(0001)
We have studied the Tamm-type surface state of La(0001) by tunneling spectroscopy within a wide range of tunneling currents from 0.1 nA to 8000 nA, thereby tuning the electric-field strength in a tip-vacuum-sample tunnel junction.
