Figure 7: Electronic structure of the 1D chain and 2D polymer on Au(111).

(a) Projected DoS for the 2D polymer (pCTPA) adsorbed on Au(111). The adsorbate contributions are colored analogously to Fig. 6d. (b) The according band structure, with adsorbate bands coloured collectively cyan for better visibility. In addition, 3D representations of the projected DoS for the valence band (VB) and the first three CBs are shown at the Γ point for an isodensity value of 0.005 eÅ−3 in d. (c) The analogous band structure of a 1D self-assembled linear chain on Au(111).
