Molecules with five-fold symmetry arrange themselves on a surface as a two-dimensional crystal, although theoretically this ought not to be possible. Recently researchers at Empa and the University of Zurich have taken the first steps to a better understanding of this 'impossible' behavior by monitoring the complicated crystallization process with a scanning tunnel microscope.
