Functional optimization by control of the electronic and structural properties of organic molecules on surfaces studied by scanning tunneling microscopy (B03)

In this project two central aspects are investigated. 1: The investigation of the electronic properties of molecular systems by LT-STM/STS. The properties of substrate supported single molecules, 1D and 2D molecular assemblies as well as extended molecular layer are investigated with respect to the influence of the substrate-molecule and competing intermolecular interactions on the electronic properties of these systems by STS. 2. Self-organization and phase transitions in weakly interacting molecular layers prepared by OBME are studied. STM studies of layered systems are performed for various other projects of TTR 61.
