Abstract
Individual C-60 molecules chemisorbed on Si(100)-(2x1) surfaces have b een studied by scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. Chemiso rption was realized by annealing the samples with room-temperature dep osited adsorbates to 600 degrees C. Spectroscopic results on individua l adsorbates reveal a transition of their electronic structure from th at of a near-free adsorbate to that of SiC, as the adsorbate-substrate interaction increases.
