| The image was taken at 50 mV and 100 pA, and at 83 K, with a home-built STM operating in constant current mode. It shows a multilayer structure for (/S/,/S/)-tartaric acid, C4H6O6, grown on Ag(111). Each bright oval in the first layer, along with each bright circle in the overlayer, corresponds to a single tartaric acid molecule. The feature along the right side of the image is a single Ag(111) step. |
