From London to Morse via Binnig, Quate, and Gerber

Sofia Alonso Perez, Matthew O. Blunt, Frederick Carlisle +30

In their landmark paper introducing the atomic force microscope [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{56}, 930 (1986)], Binnig, Quate, and Gerber presciently anticipated that the technique wou…

Activating the fluorescence of a Ni(II) complex by energy transfer

Tzu-Chao Hung, Yokari Godinez-Loyola, Manuel Steinbrecher +5

Luminescence of open-shell 3d metal complexes is often quenched due to ultrafast intersystem crossing (ISC) and cooling into a dark metal-centered excited state. We demonstrate suc…

Bipolar single-molecule electroluminescence and electrofluorochromism

Tzu-Chao Hung, Roberto Robles, Brian Kiraly +5

Understanding the fundamental mechanisms of optoelectronic excitation and relaxation pathways on the single-molecule level has only recently been started by combining scanning tunn…

Quantum simulator to emulate lower dimensional molecular structure

E. Sierda, X. Huang, D. I. Badrtdinov +7

Bottom-up quantum simulators have been developed to quantify the role of various interactions, dimensionality, and structure in creating electronic states of matter. Here, we demon…

Orbital memory from individual Fe atoms on black phosphorus

Brian Kiraly, Elze J. Knol, Alexander N. Rudenko +2

Bistable valency in individual atoms presents a new approach toward single-atom memory, as well as a building block to create tunable and stochastic multi-well energy landscapes. Y…

Gating orbital memory with an atomic donor

Elze J. Knol, Brian Kiraly, Alexander N. Rudenko +3

Orbital memory is defined by two stable valencies that can be electrically switched and read-out. To explore the influence of an electric field on orbital memory, we studied the di…

Plasmon-driven motion of an individual molecule

Tzu-Chao Hung, Brian Kiraly, Julian H. Strik +2

We demonstrate that nanocavity plasmons generated a few nanometers away from a molecule can induce molecular motion. For this, we study the well-known rapid shuttling motion of zin…

Moiré induced electronic structure modifications in monolayer VS on Au(111)

Umut Kamber, Sahar Pakdel, Raluca-Maria Stan +11

There is immense interest in how the local environment influences the electronic structure of materials at the single layer limit. We characterize moiré induced spatial variations…

An atomic Boltzmann machine capable of on-chip learning

Brian Kiraly, Elze J. Knol, Hilbert J. Kappen +1

The Boltzmann Machine (BM) is a neural network composed of stochastically firing neurons that can learn complex probability distributions by adapting the synaptic interactions betw…

Anisotropic two-dimensional screening at the surface of black phosphorus

Brian Kiraly, Elze J. Knol, Klara Volckaert +8

Screening in reduced dimensions has strong consequences on the electronic properties in van der Waals semiconductors, impacting the quasiparticle band gap and exciton binding energ…

An orbitally derived single-atom magnetic memory

Brian Kiraly, Alexander N. Rudenko, Werner M. J. van Weerdenburg +3

A single magnetic atom on a surface epitomizes the scaling limit for magnetic information storage. Indeed, recent work has shown that individual atomic spins can exhibit magnetic r…

Probing Single Vacancies in Black Phosphorus at the Atomic Level

Brian Kiraly, Nadine Hauptmann, Alexander N. Rudenko +2

Utilizing a combination of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS) and electronic structure calculations, we characterize the structural and electronic…
