We have investigated the electric conductance and atomic structure of single molecular junctions of pyrazine (Py), 4,4′-bipyridine (BiPy), fullerene (C60), and 1,4-diaminobutane (DAB).

<b>Control of quantum interference features</b>: molecular junctions incorporating pyrrolodipyridine-based molecular wires were fabricated by scanning probe methods. Quantum interference effects were introduced by employing <i>meta</i>-connected molecules, and modulated in magnitude by changing the substituent on the pyrrolic N. Dramatic changes in molecular conductance and DFT transport calculations demonstrate the storng effect that small changes in electronic density can have on the overall conductance of a molecular wire.

Modern surface analysis is based largely upon the use of ionizing radiation to probe the electronic and atomic structure of the surfaces physical and chemical makeup. In many of these studies the ionizing radiation used as the primary probe is found to induce changes in the structure and makeup of the surface, especially when electrons are employed. A number of techniques employ the phenomenon of radiation induced desorption as a means of probing the nature of the surface bond. These include Electron- and Photon-Stimulated Desorption (ESD and PSD) which measure desorbed ionic and neutral species as they leave the surface after the surface has been excited by some incident ionizing particle. There has recently been a great deal of activity in determining the relationship between the nature of chemical bonding and its susceptibility to radiation damage.

Tilted beam dark-field microscopy has been applied to atomic structure determination in perfect crystals, several synthesized molecules with heavy atcm markers and in the study of displaced atoms in crystals. Interpretation of this information in terms of atom positions and atom correlations is not straightforward. Therefore, calculated dark-field images can be an invaluable aid in image interpretation.
