STM contrast of a CO dimer on a Cu(1 1 1) surface: a wave-function analysis
Alexander Gustafsson, Magnus Paulsson
We present a method used to intuitively interpret the STM contrast by investigating individual wave functions originating from the substrate and tip side. We use localized basis or…

Analysis of STM images with pure and CO-functionalized tips: A first-principles and experimental study
Alexander Gustafsson, Norio Okabayashi, Angelo Peronio +2
We describe a first principles method to calculate scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images, and compare the results to well-characterized experiments combining STM with atomic f…

Scanning tunneling microscopy current from localized basis orbital density functional theory
Alexander Gustafsson, Magnus Paulsson
We present a method capable of calculating elastic scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) currents from localized atomic orbital density functional theory (DFT). To overcome the poor…
