摘要
Simultaneous imaging of organic molecules and an underlying metallic substrate lattice is often hampered by tip-induced molecular motion, even at low temperatures. In the case of perylene-tetracarboxylic acid-dianhydride (PTCDA) on Ag(110), this problem is circumvented by using tip-induced motion of a coadsorbed Ag atom to obtain convenient markers of the substrate lattice. A model for the registry of PTCDA on Ag(110) is deduced. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
