Protruding hydrogen atoms as markers for the molecular orientation of a metallocene
A distinct dumbbell shape is observed as the dominant contrast feature in the experimental data when imaging 1,1’-ferrocene dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) molecules on bulk and thin film CaF2(111) surfaces with non-contact atomic force microscopy (NC-AFM). We use NC-AFM image calculations with the probe p...
