Abstract
We have studied the deposition and imaging of nanoscale molecular wheelbarrows. These molecules integrate-in analogy to macroscopic barrows-two wheels, legs and handles along a polyaromatic platform and were imaged on a clean Cu(1Â 0Â 0) surface with a scanning tunneling microscope at 7Â K. The obtained images are in accordance with calculations and are dominated by the wheels. Several stable conformations of the wheelbarrow were found and identified by comparison with calculated images.
