Research Abstract |
In the present study, in order to measure STM-IETS with high precision and demonstrate its availability as a characterization method, an STM and its measurement system havebeen modified. Owing to this modification (1) alkanethiol SAM surfaces with large terrace and defect free suitable for IETS were fabricated and (2) dI/dV mapping for alkanethiolSAM surfaces on Au(111) surfaces were repeatedly obtained. Along with the modification of the experimental setup, IET processes for alkanethiol SAM have been reviewed and reported in Progress in Surface Science with new view point, based on the so far obtained IETS data, newly acquired Infrared spectroscopy, theory with density functional theory.Appearance of the IET process in the electron transport through a nanodevice and its influence on the conductions were also found.
