On-surface reactions and charge transitions by atomic manipulation — •Leo Gross — IBM Research - Zurich, Säumerstr. 4, 8003 Rüschlikon, Switzerland

Molecules can be created using atomic manipulation to break and to form covalent bonds. High-resolution atomic force microscopy (AFM) with functionalized tips provides insights into the structure, geometry, aromaticity, charge states and bond-order relations of the molecules created and into the reactions performed [1]. Recently, we generated the molecular carbon allotrope cyclo[18]carbon and resolved its long debated structure [2].

On insulating substrates, we can control the charge state of molecules by deliberately attaching and detaching single electrons with the tip. We measured the reorganization energy of a molecule on an insulator [3] and resolved the changes within molecular geometry, adsorption and aromaticity related to its oxidation state [4].
