Due to their vast potential for functionalities, molecular assemblies at surfaces have attracted a certain interest in surface Physics. Recent experiments have shown the feasibility to create metal-organic nanochains with special catalytic properties [1], or to activate selected molecules for the use as molecular quantum cellular automata [2]. On superconductors, these molecules create ground states, formed by a balance between Kondo screening and superconducting pair-breaking interactions [3].
Here, we investigate the structural and electronic properties of self-assembled layers of 3-TBQP (3,6,14,17-tetrabromodibenzo[a,c]-dibenzo[5,6:7,8]-quinoxalino-[2,3-i]phenazine) on the superconducting Pb(111) surface. The layers are characterized at 4 K by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) with CO-terminated tips. Our results show a fundamental step in developing functional supramolecular networks at supra-conductors [4].
