Carrier (electron or hole) injection from a scanning tunneling microscope tip causes various surface modifications on the molecular scale. We report that injection into C60 close-packed layers forms a ring-shaped distribution of C60 polymers. This can be explained on the basis of the radial propagation and energy dissipation of carriers. Subsequent electron or hole injections enlarge the ring, showing that both carriers can induce both polymerization and depolymerization. Furthermore, we demonstrate visualization of carrier scattering by injecting carriers into C60 layers with grain boundaries.
