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.

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.
