Positional and Rotational Molecular Degrees of Freedom in a Metal-Organic Surface Alloy: the Copper-Fullerene System and its Multiple Structural Phases

María Alfonso Moro, Yannick Dappe, Sylvie Godey +7

Mixing two chemical elements at the surface of a substrate is known to produce rich phase diagrams of surface alloys. Here, we extend the concept of surface alloying to the case wh…
