title: Odd-even effect and metal induced structural convergence in self-assembled monolayers of bipyridine derivatives.
abstract: Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) observations reveal that bipyridine derivatives which exhibit various two-dimensional structures due to the odd-even chain length effect are converged into a lamellar structure upon metal coordination.
