Figure 2.
The products of DBN on the Au(111) surface. a) STM image of DBN deposited on Au(111) at RT (I=5 pA, V=200 mV). Inset: A magnified STM image highlighting dimers 11 after annealing to 420 K. b), c) High‐resolution STM and AFM image of poly(o‐naphthylene vinylidene) 12. (I=5 pA, V=200 mV, ΔZ=−150 pm), d) AFM image simulation of 9, Δf tip‐Z=−7.3 Å. e) Structural model of 12. f), g) High‐resolution STM and AFM image of 11, obtained after annealing 520 K. (I=5 pA, V=200 mV, ΔZ=−150 pm), h) Structural model of 11. The white scale bars are 5 nm in (a), and 1 nm in the rest STM/nc‐AFM images.
