Many thanks to Dr. Yoshihide Seino and Mr. Kurita @UNISOKU_PR and Dr. Andy Bettac @nanoscore for their excellent work during the installation! Now we are looking forward to the second phase, when the Raman system of the USM1400-LT TERS will be installed.
ドイツのマールブルク大学@GottfriedGroupで納品作業を行いました。現地でサポートいただいたスタッフの皆さま、ご協力ありがとうございました!
We delivered our STM system to Marburg University in Germany. Thank you to the staff for your support and cooperation!

Cycloazulenylene. After our report and public disclosure in Feb 2026 @ChemRxiv, you can read about this beauty in @angew_chem. Great team work @Slanina_Group.
And no, none of the 2,6- cycloazulenylenes are segments of Haeckelite nanotubes. none.

A review paper titled “Designer π-Magnetism in Magnetic Graphene Nanostructures: Advances and Future Perspectives” is now online in NSR. Congratulations to Xinnan and all the authors! doi.org/10.1093/nsr/nwag157

The number of grant applications is rising sharply. Our capacity for their evaluation isn’t.
ERC President Maria Leptin explains why stricter resubmission limits are being introduced for 2027 calls and what this mean for applicants.

My new favourite molecule published as VIP paper / front cover in @angew_chem Great collaboration with the groups of Jascha Repp and @Leo_Gross_IBM in the framework of @ERC_Research SyG MolDAM @axenciaGAIN onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

You see a half-Möbius body. Start somewehre on it and go around. You will need to go 4 times around to return to your starting position. We made a molecule with an orbital basis of such topology and switched the winding by atom manipulation. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Happy to share a new molecular topology. We call it half-Moebius. Even switchable between on, off and reversed winding. Exhibiting twisted orbitals, confirmed by quantum computing. science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…
New paper in Nature Chemistry: We find that on-surface radical ring-opening polymerization of [6]CPP on Cu(111), produces near micrometer-long poly(para-phenylene) (PPP) chains — far beyond typical polymer lengths obtained by On-Surface Synthesis.
🔗 nature.com/articles/s41557-0… 1/4
Result: ultralong PPP chains up to ~0.9 µm observed by STM/AFM. Because the reaction proceeds without halogen byproducts, the surrounding surface remains clean and so the PPP chains can engage in well-defined follow-up reactions: 3/4
They dehydrogenate along one edge → poly(para-benzyne) intermediates → fusion into biphenylene nanoribbons.
➡️ Route to nonbenzenoid carbon nanostructures.
Great collaboration with @RalfTonner & the Schirmeisen group, first authors: @QitangF, Qigang Zhong

Introducing tip-induced skeletal editing. New collaboration with @mishshan @Leo_Gross_IBM and coworkers @chalmersuniv @IBMResearch @ciqususc @ERC_Research @axenciaGAIN @J_A_C_S pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jac…
Our new @J_A_C_S paper: π-extended quintulene that traps a single Au atom and can be flipped with an STM tip: a step toward curved nanocarbons via on-surface synthesis.
