Abstract

Proposed is a molecular arrangement comprising a movable molecule which is surrounded by a molecular cage-like arrangement fixed on a surface. The movable molecule is in a mobilized state in which it is decoupled from the cage-like arrangement. This means that it is out of registry with the van-der-Waals lattice of the molecular cage-like arrangement. The movable molecule is further decoupled from the surface in that it is not physisorbed or chemisorbed thereon. It shows an energy barrier for rotational movement equal or lower than kT.
