Materials informatics for self-assembly of functionalized organic precursors on metal surfaces

Bottom-up fabrication via on-surface molecular self-assembly is a useful way to make nanomaterials, but finding appropriate precursor molecules for a given structure remains a challenge. Here the authors present an informatics technique linking self-assembled structures with precursor properties, he...
