Figure 6

(a) Schematic drawing of the on-surface chemical reaction for B-GNR. (b) STM topography of B-GNR, synthesized on Au(111). Scale bar, 30 nm. (c–e) High-resolution STM topographies taken with tip bias voltages of −3 V, 3 V and −2 mV. (f) High-resolution AFM image of N=7 B-GNR and (g) the corresponding Laplace filtered image for a better view of bonds. (h) Simulated AFM image. (i) STM topography after annealing at 510 °C. Scale bar, 10 nm. (j, k) AFM images of N=14 B-GNR and (l) of N=21 B-GNR. A full color version of this figure is available at Polymer Journal online.
