We report adsorption place dependence of endohedral metallofullerene Er@C82 on alkanethiol self-assembled monolayer (SAM) by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) to realize liquid N2 temperature operation of single molecular orientation switch of the endohedral metallofullerene. From dI/dV curves, same peak position and gap width were observed on Er@C82 on step edge and terras of octanethiol SAM, but on etch pit or boundary, gap width was wider and narrower, respectively. On the basis of the energy diagram, we have evaluated the HOMO-LUMO gap of Er@C82 as 0.5 eV on step edge and terras, and the Fermi level found to be located on 0.1 eV above the HOMO level. |
