Intermolecular artifacts in probe microscope images of C60 assemblies (2015)
Journal Article
Jarvis, S. P., Rashid, M. A., Sweetman, A., Leaf, J., Taylor, S., Moriarty, P., & Dunn, J. (2015). Intermolecular artifacts in probe microscope images of C60 assemblies. Physical review B: Condensed matter and materials physics, 92(24), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.92.241405

Claims that dynamic force microscopy has the capability to resolve intermolecular bonds in real space continue to be vigorously debated. To date, studies have been restricted to planar molecular assemblies with small separations between neighboring m...

Jahn-Teller effects and surface interactions in multiply-charged fullerene anions and the effect on scanning tunneling microscopy images (2015)
Journal Article
Dunn, J. L., Alqannas, H. S., & Lakin, A. J. (2015). Jahn-Teller effects and surface interactions in multiply-charged fullerene anions and the effect on scanning tunneling microscopy images. Chemical Physics, 460, 14-25. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemphys.2015.05.016

We investigate the combined effects of Jahn-Teller (JT) coupling and interactions with a surface substrate on fullerene anions C$_{60}^{2-}$ to C$_{60}^{4-}$. JT coupling alone causes the C$_{60}$ ions to instantaneously distort from the icosahedral...
