Figure 3.
STM images of the assemblies formed by molecule 2 deposited on Au(111) (left panels) and Cu(111) (right panels) surfaces held at 140 K. Large-scale images (a and b) displaying molecular clusters of different sizes. Insets in (a and b) show individual molecules. High-resolution images of c) ring- and d) arc-like supramolecular architectures composed of six and four molecular units, respectively.
