The formation and investigation of molecular nanoarchitectures on well-defined inorganic surfaces is thought to be highly relevant for the development of future nanoelectronic devices. One way to obtain insight into the underlying interactions controlling molecular self-assembly is through ultrahigh spatial resolution on the submolecular scale.
In this work, the self-assembly of para-hexaphenyl-dicarbonitrile molecules was investigated on Au(111) with low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and non-contact atomic force microscopy (nc-AFM) using functionalized CO tips. Two different nanoporous networks were observed for submonolayer coverages. The rhombic network stabilized by C-N...H bonds was found after molecular deposition at room temperature. Upon thermal annealing at 575K, a hexagonal network stabilized by metal-ligand interactions with native gold atoms formed. Due to the ultrahigh spatial resolution of nc-AFM, information on the intermolecular interactions could be directly obtained.
