Atomically flat reconstructed rutile TiO2(001) surfaces for oxide film growth
Yang Wang, Shinbuhm Lee, Paolo Vilmercati +3
The availability of low-index rutile TiO2 single crystal substrates with atomically flat surfaces is essential for enabling epitaxial growth of rutile transition metal oxide films.…
Surface Chemical Reactivity of Ultrathin Pd(111) Films on Ru(0001): Importance of Orbital Symmetry in the Application of the d-Band Model
Xiangshi Yin, Valentino R. Cooper, Hanno H. Weitering +1
The chemical bonding of adsorbate molecules on transition-metal surfaces is strongly influenced by the hybridization between the molecular orbitals and the metal d-band. The streng…
Strain tuning of topological band order in cubic semiconductors
Wanxiang Feng, Wenguang Zhu, Hanno H. Weitering +3
We theoretically explore the possibility of tuning the topological order of cubic diamond/zinc-blende semiconductors with external strain. Based on the tight-binding model, we anal…
Competing periodicities in fractionally filled one-dimensional bands
P. C. Snijders, S. Rogge, H. H. Weitering
We present a variable temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and Spectroscopy (STM and STS) study of the Si(553)-Au atomic chain reconstruction. This quasi one-dimensional (1D)…
Formation of atom wires on vicinal silicon
C. Gonzalez, P. C. Snijders, J. Ortega +4
The formation of atomic wires via pseudomorphic step-edge decoration on vicinal silicon surfaces has been analyzed for Ga on the Si(112) surface using Scanning Tunneling Microscopy…
Theory of the "honeycomb chain-channel" reconstruction of Si(111)3x1
Steven C. Erwin, Hanno H. Weitering
First-principles electronic-structure methods are used to study a structural model for Ag/Si(111)3x1 recently proposed on the basis of transmission electron diffraction data. The f…
