Molecular assemblies of functional (mostly N-heterocyclic) molecules on gold electrode surfaces studied by electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy 06BCJ1167. 

The prepared films [50] have been characterized with attenuated total reflection Fourier infrared spectroscopy, PL, optical ellipsometry, and scanning tunneling microscopy, and the results are consistent with the formation of stable, disordered monolayers of GdSe nanocrystals with high packing density. This assembly technique may have applications for the production of molecular electronic devices on semiconductor substrates [50]. 

Alternate Multilayered Systems for Scanning Maxwell Stress Microscopy As already described, the LB technique is suitable for making highly oriented molecular assemblies. But detailed structures of LB films had not been clarified until these films were studied by scanning probe microscopies (SPMs) [95-101]. The SPMs, such as scanning tunneling microscopy (STM)... 

Synergy in molecular recognition and self-assembly occurs in various phases in both solutions and also in solid states and liquid crystals. On-surface self-assembly possesses a special advantage in that molecules are visualized by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). This allows us to gain detailed insight into how molecules act cooperatively with each other.
