Atomically precise mechanosynthesis of carbon structures on hydrogenated Si(100) by inverted-mode STM

The ability to build atomically precise structures on surfaces with complete control over both atomic placement and chemical bonding remains a central challenge in nanoscale fabrication. Here, we demonstrate simultaneous spatial and chemical control over the mechanosynthetic fabrication of carbon structures.
