摘要
The reversible interconversion between two nonplanar conformations of single Zn(II) Etioporphyrin I molecules adsorbed on a NiAl(110) surface at 13 K was induced by a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). The threshold voltage for the conformational change at negative sample bias depends linearly on the tip-sample distance, suggesting an electrostatic force mechanism. The reverse conversion involves inelastic electron tunneling via a molecular electronic resonance at 1.25 eV. In contrast with the photon-induced conformational changes, an electrically induced mechanism is realized with the STM.
