DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-03766-x
Abstract: The spectral distribution of light emitted from a scanning tunnelling microscope junction not only bears its intrinsic plasmonic signature but is also imprinted with the characteristics of optical frequency fluc- tuations of the tunnel current.… read more here.

Abstract: Nanoscale photoisomerisation in photochromic crystals is promising for nanoscale optoelectronic applications. To further understand this phenomenon and address fundamental difficulties in measuring photoisomerisation at the nanoscale, we used scanning tunnelling spectroscopy (STS) to measure the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jmi.12699
Abstract: Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) was used to induce conformational molecular switching on a self‐assembled monolayer of zinc‐octaethylporphyrin on a graphite/tetradecane interface at room temperature. A reversible conformational change controlled by applying a tip voltage was… read more here.
