What is Long-Range-Ordered, Molecular-Induced Nanofaceting about?
Tailoring long-range ordered nanostructured systems is a fundamental issue in many fields of science, ranging from materials science (e.g., nanodot arrays, nanowires, nanostripes, or functionalized nanogrids ) to biology (as benchmarks and substrates for biological systems ). Nanoscale regular patterning over macroscopic areas is not feasible by manipulation of single atoms or molecules, however the task could be achieved by employing a self-assembling process in which the formation of structures is driven by internal interactions (e.g., Coulomb forces). A promising way to obtain nanopatterns is based on the surface faceting of metallic substrates induced by adsorbed species. In this process, the interaction between adsorbates and substrate drives the formation of substrate domains (facets), in which the crystallographic orientation is different from the original surface. It is known that organic molecules adsorbed on metallic surfaces can show self-organization properties, giving rise to ordered monolayers under appropriate conditions. Furthermore, in some cases the adsorption of organic molecules has been reported to induce faceting of the substrate accompanied by a loca
