Abstract

Long and narrow fullerene stripes have been fabricated on a vicinal gold surface by utilizing faceting of Au(433) substrates upon C60 adsorption and subsequent annealing. The observed step bunching is attributed to a lowering of the facet-free energy. This surface morphology is a promising template candidate for subsequent deposition of functional units.
