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.

Use of PtC Nanotips for Low-Voltage Quantum Tunneling Applications

Micromachines, 2022
The use of focused ion and focused electron beam (FIB/FEB) technology permits the fabrication of micro- and nanometer scale geometries. Therefore, FIB/FEB technology is a favorable technique for preparing TEM lamellae, nanocontacts, or nanowires and ...

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.

Scanning tunneling spectroscopy of subsurface Ag and Ge impurities in copper

New Journal of Physics, 2021
We investigate single Ge and Ag impurities buried below a Cu(100) surface using low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. The interference patterns in the local density of states are surface scattering signatures of the bulk impurities, which result

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.

Spin excitations and correlations in scanning tunneling spectroscopy

New Journal of Physics, 2015
In recent years inelastic spin-flip spectroscopy using a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope has been a very successful tool for studying not only individual spins but also complex coupled systems. When these systems interact with the electrons

Waveform-sequencing for scanning tunneling microscopy based pump-probe spectroscopy and pulsed-ESR

MethodsX, 2019
We present here the straightforward implementation of pump-probe methods into existing scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) systems. Our method uses the waveform-sequencing abilities of a standard arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) and a simple mechanical

Zero-bias anomaly in one-dimensional ultrathin metallic nanowires

AIP Advances, 2012
The electronic properties of ultrathin bimetallic Au/Ag nanowires with 2-3 nm in diameter were explored by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) at liquid-nitrogen temperature.
