Various interactions at the organic/metal interfaces are of great importance in the formation of intermolecular networks and organic epitaxy, and have a strong correlation with their electronic structures. In this context, the numerous factors involved in the prediction and control of molecular networks make systematic study and sophisticated molecule design essential to the achievement of desired structures. In this talk, recent research using scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS) for investigating and tailoring various interfacial interactions of organic molecules on the noblest gold (Au) surface will be mainly discussed. Single-molecule studies using STM/STS have contributed to revealing interfacial electronic and geometric structures at the organic/metal interfaces in detail. Based on these findings, the formation of molecular networks also can be controlled by tuning the subtle balance between surface-molecule and intermolecular interactions. |
