Characterizing and Manipulating Individual Molecules by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy Bin Li, J. G. Hou* Hefei National Laboratory For Physical Sciences at Microscale, University of Science and Technology of China, Anhui, Hefei 230026, China Abstract Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) can provide us the special means to characterize the locally physical and chemical properties of individual molecules, and even help us to manipulate the individual molecules for constructing new molecule-scale devices. Here we have adopted two new types of STM techniques to characterize the encapsulated metal a
