N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) are an exciting new class of ligand for metal surfaces, with potentially interesting applications in patterning and surface functionalization. In this talk, we will address the use of NHCs as ligands for various metal surfaces including coinage and other metals. The functionalization of flat and structured surfaces will be presented and potential applications in etching.
