Abstract
We present results of manipulation experiments for single C2H4 molecules and single Pb atoms and buildup of small nanostructures on a Cu(211) substrate employing our temperature‐variable scanning tunneling microscope. We further discuss novel ‘‘indirect’’ lateral manipulation experiments with C2H4 chains and Pb dimers. The latter experiments prove the special stability of Pb dimers. Co‐adsorption experiments with CO allow determination of the adsorption sites of C2H4 molecules as well as Pb atoms and Pb dimers.Keywords
