Molecular Quantum Rings Formed from a π -Conjugated Macrocycle (2020)
Journal Article
Judd, C. J., Nizovtsev, A. S., Plougmann, R., Kondratuk, D. V., Anderson, H. L., Besley, E., & Saywell, A. (2020). Molecular Quantum Rings Formed from a π -Conjugated Macrocycle. Physical Review Letters, 125(20), Article 206803. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.206803

The electronic structure of a molecular quantum ring (stacks of 40-unit cyclic porphyrin polymers) is characterized via scanning tunneling microscopy and scanning tunneling spectroscopy. Our measurements access the energetic and spatial distribution... Read More about Molecular Quantum Rings Formed from a π -Conjugated Macrocycle.

Structural characterisation of molecular conformation and the incorporation of adatoms in an on-surface Ullmann-type reaction (2020)
Journal Article
Judd, C. J., Junqueira, F. L. Q., Haddow, S. L., Champness, N. R., Duncan, D. A., Jones, R. G., & Saywell, A. (2020). Structural characterisation of molecular conformation and the incorporation of adatoms in an on-surface Ullmann-type reaction. Communications Chemistry, 3(1), Article 166. https://doi.org/10.1038/s42004-020-00402-0

© 2020, The Author(s). The on-surface synthesis of covalently bonded materials differs from solution-phase synthesis in several respects. The transition from a three-dimensional reaction volume to quasi-two-dimensional confinement, as is the case for...

On-surface chemical reactions characterised by ultra-high resolution scanning probe microscopy (2020)
Journal Article
Sweetman, A., Champness, N. R., & Saywell, A. (2020). On-surface chemical reactions characterised by ultra-high resolution scanning probe microscopy. Chemical Society Reviews, 49(13), 4189-4202. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0cs00166j

In the last decade it has become possible to resolve the geometric structure of organic molecules with intramolecular resolution using high resolution scanning probe microscopy (SPM), and specifically using the subset of SPM known as noncontact atomi...
