Supramolecular Self-Assembly and Photo-Induced Transition of a Halogenated Azo-Benzene Molecule on Au(111) Surface

Supramolecular Self-Assembly and Photo-Induced Transition of a Halogenated Azo-Benzene Molecule on Au(111) Surface

Azobenzene derivatives are a unique class of photo-switch molecules with promising potential for nanoscale optical applications. We have studied the self-assembly and photo-induced mechanical switching of azobenzene derivatives on Au(111) at the single-molecule level by using scanning tunneling micr...
