abstract = {The discovery of chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS),
resulting from an interaction between the electron spin and
handedness of chiral molecules, has sparked interest in
surface-adsorbed chiral molecules due to potential
applications in spintronics, enantioseparation, and
enantioselective chemical or biological processes. We study
the deposition of chiral heptahelicene by sublimation under
ultra-high vacuum onto bare Cu(111), Co bilayer nanoislands
on Cu(111), and Fe bilayers on W(110) by low-temperature
spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy
(STM/STS). In all cases, the molecules remain intact and
adsorb with the proximal phenanthrene group aligned parallel
to the surface. Three degenerate in-plane orientations on
Cu(111) and Co(111), reflecting substrate symmetry, and only
two on Fe(110), i.e., fewer than symmetry permits, indicate
a specific adsorption site for each substrate. Heptahelicene
physisorbs on Cu(111) but chemisorbs on Co(111) and Fe(110)
bilayers, which nevertheless remain for the sub-monolayer
coverage ferromagnetic and magnetized out-of-plane. We are
able to determine the handedness of individual molecules
chemisorbed on Fe(110) and Co(111), as previously reported
for less reactive Cu(111). The demonstrated deposition
control and STM/STS imaging capabilities for heptahelicene
on Co/Cu(111) and Fe/W(110) substrate systems lay the
foundation for studying CISS in ultra-high vacuum and on the
microscopic level of single molecules in controlled atomic
configurations.},
