abstract = {Controlled manipulation of single molecules is an important
step towards the fabrication of single molecule devices and
nanoscale molecular machines. Currently, scanning probe
microscopy (SPM) is the only technique that facilitates
direct imaging and manipulations of nanometer-sized
molecular compounds on surfaces. The technique of
hand-controlled manipulation (HCM) introduced recently in
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2014, 5, 1926–1932 simplifies
the identification of successful manipulation protocols in
situations when the interaction pattern of the manipulated
molecule with its environment is not fully known. Here we
present a further technical development that substantially
improves the effectiveness of HCM. By adding Oculus Rift
virtual reality goggles to our HCM set-up we provide the
experimentalist with 3D visual feedback that displays the
currently executed trajectory and the position of the SPM
tip during manipulation in real time, while simultaneously
plotting the experimentally measured frequency shift (Δf)
of the non-contact atomic force microscope (NC-AFM) tuning
fork sensor as well as the magnitude of the electric current
(I) flowing between the tip and the surface. The advantages
of the set-up are demonstrated by applying it to the model
problem of the extraction of an individual PTCDA molecule
from its hydrogen-bonded monolayer grown on Ag(111)
surface.},
