Research Abstract |
Tribenzosubporphyrins are boron(III)-chelated triangular bowl-shaped ring-contracted porphyrins that possess a 14π -aromatic circuit. When using a W scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) tip doped with pre-adsorbed tribenzosubporphine-cation, negative differential resistance (NDR) phenomena were clearly observed in a reproducible manner with a peak-to-valley ratio of 2.6, a value confirmed by spatial mapping conductance measurements. Collectively, the observed NDR phenomena have been attributed to effective molecular resonant tunneling between a neutral tribenzosubporphine anchored to the metal surface and a W tip-doped with pre-adsorbed tribenzosubporphine cation.
