Graphene and Graphene derivatives are promising nanostructures to create new atomically precise materials. However, to this goal, it is important to functionalize and manipulate the graphene network in order to include specific species that confer new functionalities to the layer. We have used X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy in order to determine…
The possibility to select molecules with different shapes is one of the most intriguing issues of organic electronics, since it lets us envisage the exploitation of the anisotropy parameter for the design of hybrid archetypal devices. For this reason, we have studied the growth of two organic molecules, whose shape…

A simple model to explain graphene Moirés on single crystal metal surfaces Graphene revealed to be the most outstanding material of the decade. Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) images have proved the existence of Moiré superstructures on epitaxial graphene due to the spatial coincidence of the atomic periodicity of the graphene…
A tutorial Chemical Society Review On-surface synthesis can be regarded as an efficient means to build new molecular species by using bottom-up strategies. Recently, a collection of different reactions leading to large tailor-made organic molecules on single-crystal metal surfaces has been reported. The fundamental mechanisms controlling these reactions can be…
Scholarship Application Deadline Extended to April 30th 2011 The Welch Scholarship provides $15000 support once per year to a promising scholar who wishes to study vacuum science, techniques or their application in any field, and wants to spend a year in a research lab in another country. This is an…
