Caption

Figure 1A: Schematic image of a single CO molecule in solitude adsorbed on a single copper crystal. 1B: Schematic images of vibrations of a CO molecule adsorbed on a copper surface. A CO molecule on a surface exhibits two types of horizontal vibrational modes. The low energy mode of vibration is called the Frustrated Translational (FT) mode, where the oxygen and carbon atoms deflect in the same direction. The high energy mode of vibration is called the Frustrated Rotational (FR) mode, where the oxygen and carbon atoms deflect in the opposite directions.
