Motion of fatty acid molecules on the solid/liquid interface. STM images (10 nm × 10 nm/ = 0.4 nA, = 700 mV/) displaying the mobility of fatty acid patterns during scan (scan time: (a) = 0 min; (b) = 15 min; (c) = 30 min). 5 nm × 5 nm image/(c2) = 0.4 nA, = 700 mV/ of interlocking octadecanoic acid chains.
