Reconstruction of the chemical structure of a SM from TERS mapping. (a) STM topograph of the target molecule only shows the outline of the molecular shape without any structural details. (b) Reconstruction of the full molecular structure from the TERS mapping images of representative vibrational modes by assembling constituent chemical units together, including pyrrole C–H bonds, pyrrole rings, bridging C–H bonds, and a central Mg atom.
