Abstract

An advanced undergraduate laboratory experiment in inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy is described. The project was done by junior- and senior-level students. Tunnel junctions were fabricated, the tunneling spectra of several molecules adsorbed on the surface of aluminum oxide measured, and mode assignments made for several of the prominent peaks in the spectra using results obtained from optical studies.
