摘要: Abstract We have studied the structure and bonding nature of a single C60 molecule adsorbed on Si(1 1 1)-(7 × 7) surface using density-functional theory calculations. Based total-energy calculations scanning-tunneling-microscopy (STM) simulations, we propose structural model for most representative adsorption configuration reported by STM experiments. In this model, adsorbs at position about 1 A apart from middle half unit cell with C–C bond shared pentagon hexagon rings facing down toward surface. find in calculated density states that highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) peak is resolved interaction into two levels, good agreement photoelectron spectroscopy data. It shown charge characters affected electronic molecule-surface basically C–Si covalent bondings.
