Structural and electronic effects of adatoms on metallic atomic chains in Si(111)5 × 2-Au

Structural and electronic effects of adatoms on metallic atomic chains in Si(111)5 × 2-Au

Abstract We investigate the effects of native Si adatoms on structural and electronic properties of the Si(111)5 × 2-Au surface, a representative one-dimensional metal-chain system, by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. High-resolution STM...
