Single-molecule chemical reactions probed by atomic force microscopy

Single-molecule chemical reactions probed by atomic force microscopy
Seminário com o Prof. Shadi Fatayer - Applied Physics Program, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), Saudi Arabia

30/08, 3ª feira, 15h. Auditório Adma Jafet


 

On-surface chemical reactions on single molecules leads to fundamental chemical insights, such as better understanding bond-order relationships in reaction intermediates and products. Here, based on high-resolution atomic force microscopy/scanning tunnelling microscopy experiments, we will demonstrate the power of atom manipulation in two contexts: on conductive and on non-conductive substrates.  On conductive substrates we will show how atom manipulation can generate a Diels-Alder reaction and couple terminal alkynes, on non-conductive substrates we will demonstrate how controlling the charge state of individual molecules can promote the reversible dissociation of a single molecule.
