Abstract
⺠Naphtho[2,3-a]pyrene, a promising optoelectronics material, was studied on Au. ⺠The molecule strongly perturbs the herringbone reconstruction of Au(111). ⺠Reversible Au atom exchange from the herringbone to the step edges is observed. ⺠Herringbone perturbation is dictated by both thermodynamic and kinetic factors. ⺠Au(111) restructuring is accompanied by a new equilibrium structure of the adlayer.
