Partially Folded Conformation

STM microscopy allowed direct observation of perfectly- and partially-folded conformers of OP8Br and OP8NO2on Au(111). The metastable partially-folded conformation was stabilized by their more efficient electronic coupling with the Au substrate.

Anomalies in the morphology of the carbon cage of C 60 clusters have been investigated with atomic level resolution using high-resolution scanning tunnelling microscopy. The imperfect carbon cages have been resolved in the finest detail, which, for the first time, provide a remarkable confirmation of a variety of theoretical defect structures recently predicted by molecular dynamics simulations. The observed tunnelling spectra are consistent with the theoretical contention that the gap between the highest occupied molecular orbitals (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMO) for the clusters is decreased with the presence of defects.
