I am a PhD student from Monash University, Melbourne working on Metal-Organic Frameworks specifically using TCPP.

I've been trying to sublimate it for the past few months in UHV (e-10 mbar) at 305-320C and STM images have only shown fragments and the rare square motif of the TCPP molecule. TGA studies indicated its decomposition point only at 350C and due to this we are currently unable to proceed in our experiment.

Can anyone please let me know if they have attempted to deposit and image this molecule in STM?
