By using inelastically tunneling electrons from the tip of a scanning tunneling microscope in an ultra‐high vacuum, certain molecular vibrations are excited that, in turn, cause different actions such as hopping, rotation, and chirality conversion at the surface.<jats:boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor"><jats:graphic xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" mimetype="image/gif" position="anchor" specific-use="enlarged-web-image" xlink:href="graphic/mcontent.gif"><jats:alt-text>magnified image</jats:alt-text></jats:graphic></jats:boxed-text></jats:p>
