Surface Studies of C60 on Ferromagnetic Ni/Cu(100) and Co/Ru(OOOl) Thin Film Systems

This dissertation determined how the electronic and atomic structure of Ni/Cu(100) and Co/Ru(0001) thin films affect C6O-metal bonding and local magnetic properties at the surface. In-situ spin-averaged and spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy techniques were used in this st...
