19. The contrast of STM images depends on the tip, molecular orientation on surface as well as the imaging conditions such as bias voltage and tunneling current. The understanding of imaging contrast for arenethiol systems is not the focus of this letter and will be discussed in Yang, G.; Engtrakul, C.; Sita, L. R.; Liu, G.-Y. Langmuir 2000. To be submitted for publication.
