(Top) A UHV-STM image of fullerenes assembled on the 2Pt–Pt3Ti(111) surface (4.5 nm × 4.5 nm, Ubias = 2.22 V, Iset = 2.9 nA) overlaid by marks representing the tilting directions. (Middle) A schematic diagram representing the 2Pt–Pt3Ti(111) surface, with energetically preferred bridge adsorption sites indicated as dark-blue circles within the unit cell (black dotted lines). (Bottom) The marks schematically displaying the appearance of the three-lobe structure of fullerene as a result of the mirror plane and tilting for each of the three preferred adsorption sites in one unit cell. |
