Abstract

A single carbon monoxide (CO) or ethylene (C₂H₄) molecule was reversibly transferred between the surface and the tip through controlled manipulation with tunneling electrons. With this molecule-terminated tip, automatically resolved surface corrugations were obtained and new vibrational modes were observed which were not achieved with a bare tip.
