The Art of Catching and Probing Single Molecules
CHIMIA, 2012 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.

Spectroscopic signature of the Stark-shifted Tamm-type surface state of La(0001)
New Journal of Physics, 2020 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.

Quantum dot scanning tunneling microscopy for Majorana bound states in continuum
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 We propose a device composed of a quantum dot (QD) connected to a normal metal lead to detect Majorana bound states (MBSs), which are formed at the ends of a topological superconductor nanowire (TSNW) and coupled to the lead with spin-dependent ...

Sub-monolayer film growth of a volatile lanthanide complex on metallic surfaces
Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2015 We deposited a volatile lanthanide complex, tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato)terbium(III), onto metal surfaces of Cu(111), Ag(111) and Au(111) in vacuum and observed well-ordered sub-monolayer films with low temperature (5 K) scanning ...

Combined I(V) and dI(V)/dz scanning tunneling spectroscopy
AIP Advances, 2018 We present a method to simultaneously record I(V) and dI(V)dz spectra in a scanning tunneling microscopy measurement, where I, V and z refer to the tunnel current, sample bias and tip-substrate separation, respectively.
