Totally wired: A particular molecular adsorption geometry can be prepared by adsorbing single conjugated polyfluorene chains partially on a clean Au(111) surface and partially on a thin crystalline NaCl film, thus connecting metallic and insulating surface areas. This configuration allows the electronic characterization of one and the same molecular wire as a function of its atomic-scale environment in a planar configuration

“…These values are in excellent agreement with previous measurements. 13,14 To obtain an even better estimate of the energy resolution of our instrument, additionally the superconducting gap of an epitaxially grown Nb͑110͒ film on sapphire 15,16 was determined at 6 K. The corresponding result is presented in the inset of Fig. 6.…”

The design and performance of a scanning tunneling microscope operated under ultrahigh vacuum conditions and at low temperature are presented. It allows operating temperatures between 6 K to at least 30 K as well as safe and fast tip/sample transfers. Novel design features resulted in an extremely stable instrument with a noise level of only 0.2 pm rms in the frequency range of 0.5-500 Hz despite a relatively noisy laboratory environment. To demonstrate this behavior, results of test measurements performed on Au͑111͒ and Nb͑110͒ samples are presented.
