Description

Full text: Boron nitride nanomesh, a single layer of hexagonal boron nitride on Rh(111), is a corrugated superstructure with a lattice constant of 3.2 nm, where 'holes' and 'wires' constitute distinct bonding regions for molecules. The adsorption behavior of water on this surface is investigated by variable temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. Below the water desorption temperature two distinct phases of water are identified: in the 2 nm holes an ordered high density phase of nano-ice crystals with about 40 molecules and on the wires, a low density gas phase is found. The wires connect individual nano-ice clusters and enable fast mass transport between them. (author)
