Time-resolved single-molecule reactions

Objective

The aim of the project is to couple vacuum-ultraviolet radiation into the junction of a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) to make possible time-resolved measurements of dynamical processes at the level of single molecules. This will involve the development of a new experiment based on existing equipment as well as experimental demonstrations.
