Abstract:Self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) of N‐heterocyclic olefins (NHOs) have been prepared on Au (111) and their thermal stability, adsorption geometry, and molecular order were characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, polarized X‐ray absorption spectroscopy, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The strong σ‐bond character of NHO anchoring to Au induced high geometrical flexibility that enabled a flat‐lying adsorption geometry via coordination to Au‐adatom.… Show more
