Atomic surface characterisation and modification of the layered compounds Bi2Se3, Bi1.9Sb0.1Se3 and Bi1.6Sb0.4Se3.

In this work, we show atomic STM images of the layered compound Bi2Se3. We study the effect in the surface of the substitution of 5% and 20% of the Bi atoms for Sb in Bi1.9Sb0.1Se3 and Bi1.6Sb0.4Se3. The images of the three samples show similar trigonal structures corresponding probably to the van d...
