摘要:
We have succeeded in imaging individual C60molecules that have been adsorbed onto the tunneling region of a scanning tunneling microscopy tip. The individual tip‐adsorbed molecules are imaged by scanning the fullerene‐adsorbed tip over a defect covered graphite surface. The defects are generated by low energy argon ion bombardment and protrude from the graphite surface. These nanometer‐size defects serve as a surface tip array which inverse images the molecules adsorbed to the tip when the surface is scanned.
