Octaethyl vs Tetrabenzo Functionalized Ru Porphyrins on Ag(111) : Molecular Conformation, Self-Assembly and Electronic Structure
Metalloporphyrins on interfaces offer a rich playground for functional materials and hence have been subjected to intense scrutiny over the past decades. As the same porphyrin macrocycle on the same surface may exhibit vastly different physicochemical properties depending on the metal center and its substituents, it is vital to have a thorough structural and chemical characterization of such syste
