Principle of constant current imaging of the smallest “UBC” ever written
The positioning of the individual CO molecules on the Cu(111) surface was accomplished by lateral manipulation in the so-called “pushing” mode..

Development of an artificial molecular nanostructure
To acknowledge our main sponsor during the time at UBC, we again manipulated carbon monoxide on Cu(111), but this time we recorded the process all the way.
