Thermally-induced Covalent Coupling of Cobalt Porphyrin Molecules on Au(111)

We investigated the thermally induced covalent coupling of cobalt porphyrin (CoP) molecules on an Au(111) surface using scanning tunnelling microscopy and first-principle calculations. While CoP molecules deposited at room temperature remain isolated due to electrostatic repulsion, annealing the sub...
