Forschungspreise (German only)

Land Steiermark zeichnet Astrophysikerin und Historiker der Uni Graz aus

(left) Experimental momentum maps of PTCDA on MgO(001) at increasing photon energy. The pattern changes with photon energy as a result of the bent carbon backbone of PTCDA. (right) Side view in real space and three-dimensional momentum space density of the calculated highest occupied molecular orbital of PTCDA on MgO(001). The grey sphere represents the cut through the 3D momentum space density at a certain photon energy, which is measured experimentally as 2D momentum map. Image: UniGraz/Sterrer
