Atypical charge redistribution over a charge-transfer monolayer on a metal
We report an atypical charge distribution in a highly ordered monolayer of sodium (Na) and tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) on a Au(111) surface. Na atoms incorporated in the charge-transfer layer donate their 3s electron to the lowest unoccupied orbital of the TCNQ acceptor. A fingerprint of such a...
