On-surface synthesis and characterization of polyynic carbon chains

Caption

On the left, synthetic strategies toward the polyynic carbon chain are seen, with the bond-resolved AFM imaging showing the defined positions of triple bonds. The right shows the synthetic strategies and the STS measurement of C14 polyyne, exhibiting a band gap of 5.8 eV.
