Structural and electronic properties of ultrathin tin-phthalocyanine films on Ag(111) at the single-molecule level.
Heads or tails? The evolution of structural and electronic properties of tin-phthalocyanine films has been analyzed for sub-monolayer to multilayer coverage using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. Two molecular conformations are observed: randomly dispersed for the first layer, and islands with a single conformation in subsequent layers.
