abstract = {We performed first-principles calculations within the
density functional theory aimed to investigate the
two-dimensional geometry of one monolayer of terephthalic
acid (TPA) adsorbed on Cu(110) surface. The key issue of our
study is to elucidate if the molecule-molecule interactions
include a hydrogen bond, since such a bond would hinder the
possibility to chemically functionalize this surface [see D.
S. Martin , Phys. Rev. B 66, 155427 (2002)]. In this
context, our ab initio simulations are focused on the role
of the spatial position of the hydrogen atom of the
carboxylic group (COOH) for the structural stability of the
TPA-Cu(110) system. It was found that an adsorption geometry
involving a hydrogen bond is energetically unfavorable. The
energy barrier separating these configurations was
calculated for several different pathways of rotating the H
- O bond of the carboxylate group (OCO). We also analyze the
real-space topography of four different adsorption
geometries by simulating scanning tunneling microscopy (STM)
images for several values of the applied bias voltage (+/-
0.5, +/- 1, and +/- 2 eV). At small positive bias voltage
(+/- 0.5), only two adsorption configurations can be imaged
by STM. Besides this, theoretical STM images of these
structures show specific feature for each case considered,
and thus they can help to experimentally discriminate
between the TPA-Cu(110) geometries considered in our study.},
