Dipole-driven self-organization of zwitterionic molecules on alkali halide surfaces

Dipole-driven self-organization of zwitterionic molecules on alkali halide surfaces

We investigated the adsorption of 4-methoxy-4′-(3-sulfonatopropyl)stilbazolium (MSPS) on different ionic (001) crystal surfaces by means of noncontact atomic force microscopy. MSPS is a zwitterionic molecule with a strong electric dipole moment. When deposited onto the substrates at room temperature...
