Streamlined Inexpensive Integration of a Growth Facility and Scanning Tunneling Microscope for in situ Characterization
P. Xu, D. Qi, S. D. Barber +3
The integration of a scanning tunneling microscope chamber with a sample growth facility using non-custom, commercially available parts is described. The facility also features a n…
Controlling Mn Depth Profiles in GaMnAs During High-Temperature Molecular Beam Epitaxial Growth
P. Xu, D. Qi, M. L. Ackerman +2
Mn-doped GaAs thin films were grown at a high substrate temperature of 580 C. During the growth process, the Mn cell temperature was ramped at different rates, resulting in a varie…
Giant Surface Charge Density of Graphene Resolved From Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and First-Principles Theory
P. Xu, Y. Yang, S. D. Barber +6
In this work, systematic constant-bias, variable-current scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements and STM simulations from density-functional theory are made, yielding crit…
Atomic Control of Strain in Freestanding Graphene
P. Xu, Y. Yang, S. D. Barber +8
In this study, we describe a new experimental approach based on constant-current scanning tunneling spectroscopy to controllably and reversibly pull freestanding graphene membranes…
High-Percentage Success Method for Preparing and Pre-Evaluating Tungsten Tips for Atomic-Resolution Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
J. K. Schoelz, P. Xu, S. D. Barber +5
A custom double-lamella method is presented for electrochemically etching tungsten wire for use as tips in scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). For comparison, tips were also manuf…
A Pathway between Bernal and Rhombohedral Stacked Graphene Layers with Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
P. Xu, Y. Yang, D. Qi +7
Horizontal shifts in the top layer of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite, induced by a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) tip, are presented. Excellent agreement is found between…
