Functionalized adsorbate layers are of great interest for advanced nanosystems containing molecular switches, motors, or light harvesting systems. We employ triazatriangulenium (TATA) [1,2,3] or trioxatriangulenium (TOTA) [4] ions for attaching functional molecules to a metal surface. These molecular platforms can be functionalized at the central carbon atom as well as by alkyl side chains. Using this versatile concept, it is possible to control the orientation and distance of the functional group with respect to the surface and the intermolecular distance.
Here, detailed STM investigations of TATA adlayers with alkyl side chains from propyl to dodecyl on Au(111) surfaces are presented, showing that the favoured hexagonal superstructure varies with the alkyl chain length. Furthermore, results on functionalized TATA derivatives containing azobenzene derivatives or porphyrins are shown.
