Calculations of Constant-Height STM Images of Fullerene C60 Adsorbed onto a Surface
Constant-height scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images of a C60 molecule adsorbed onto a surface were calculated using symmetry-adapted Hückel molecular orbitals (HMOs). Three adsorption orientations of C60 are considered. The interaction between the C60 molecule and the surface was treated using symmetry arguments only. Projection operators were used to generate symmetry-adapted HMOs of the molecule. These orbitals were then used to construct idealized constant-height STM images using the simple tunneling theory of Tersoff and Hamann. A comparison is made with published experimental STM maps. The results show that, for each orientation of C60, split orbitals of the same symmetry have similar appearances in the constant-height maps. They also show that the map of a molecular orbital of a complete degeneracy is dominated by only one or two of its components.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
