Symmetry-Breaking Phase Transition without Peierls Mechanism in Conducting Monoatomic Chains
C. Blumenstein, J. Schaefer, M. Morresi +3
The one-dimensional (1D) model system Au/Ge(001), consisting of linear chains of single atoms on a surface, is scrutinized for lattice instabilities predicted in the Peierls paradi…

Self-organized atomic nanowires of noble metals on Ge(001): atomic structure and electronic properties
J. Schaefer, S. Meyer, C. Blumenstein +9
Atomic structures of quasi-one-dimensional (1D) character can be grown on semiconductor substrates by metal adsorption. Significant progress concerning study of their 1D character…
