Nanoscale low-dimensional chiral architectures are increasingly receiving scientific interest,because of their potential applications in many fields such as chiral recognition,separation and transformation.Using 6,12-...Nanoscale low-dimensional chiral architectures are increasingly receiving scientific interest,because of their potential applications in many fields such as chiral recognition,separation and transformation.Using 6,12-dibromochrysene(DBCh),we successfully constructed and characterized the large-area two-dimensional chiral networks on Au(111)and one-dimensional metal-liganded chiral chains on Cu(111)respectively.The reasons and processes of chiral transformation of chiral networks on Au(111)were analyzed.We used scanning tunneling spectroscopy(STS)to analyze the electronic state information of this chiral structure.This work combines scanning tunneling microscopy(STM)with non-contact atomic force microscopy(nc-AFM)techniques to achieve ultra-high-resolution characterization of chiral structures on low-dimensional surfaces,which may be applied to the bond analysis of functional nanofilms.Density functional theory(DFT)was used to simulate the adsorption behavior of the molecular and energy analysis in order to verify the experimental results.展开更多
