A Paradigm Shift from 2D to 3D: Surface Supramolecular Assemblies and Their Electronic Properties Explored by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and Spectroscopy (Small 24/2023)

Abstract

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy/Spectroscopy In article number 2300413, Shern-Long Lee and co-workers summarize recent scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS) studies of 3D nanoarchitectures based on the supramolecular assembly of functionalized molecules at the liquid-solid interface. The authors highlight several molecular systems with an emphasis on unique characteristics and electronic properties, providing insights into the designs of supramolecular architectures with increasing complexity and desired functionality.
