Theoretical simulation of STM image of C60 molecules on Si(100)-(2 × 1) surface was performed by the DV-Xα-LCAO method. The results excellently reproduced the internal stripe pattern of the STM image of C60 observed by experiment. We confirm that it is the interaction between C60 and the Si substrate which causes this internal structure. 相似文献

Initial stages of Ag on Si(111)−(7 × 7) surface nucleation were studied at submonolayer coverage. Samples were prepared by
thermal evaporation of Ag from tungsten wire under UHV conditions (p<2.5 × 10−8 Pa). Various deposition rates (0.002–0.1 ML s−1) were used to prepare Ag island films with coverages (0.002–2) ML (1 ML ≈ 7.58 × 1014 atoms cm−2) at room temperature. We observed preferential growth on faulted half unit cells (F cells). At constant coverage both the
island density and ratio of occupied F and U (unfaulted) cells are independent of the deposition rate, which is an evidence
for dominant influence of substrate structure. The preference of nucleation in the F cells against U cells decreases with
the coverage until the ratio is 1:1 for 1 ML Ag film. We have observed that presence of an Ag island in any type of the half
unit cell (F or U) considerably reduces nucleation probability in neighbouring cells. This results in forming of structural
patterns observed among randomly grown Ag-islands which is a new feature found for Ag/Si(111)−(7 × 7) system.

Using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), we have observed an antiphase domain boundary of single-atom width on a Si(111)-(7 × 7) surface. The extra row of adatoms forming the boundary lies on the unfaulted half of the 7 × 7 unit cell, in agreement with total energy calculations using the first-principles self-consistent pseudofunction method. The filled-state STM image shows a missing interior adatom on the unfaulted half, in agreement with calculations of the partial density of states of an adatom surrounded by three rest-atoms. 相似文献

The initial stage of growth of nanoislands prepared by thermal deposition of niobium on the reconstructed surface of Si(111)-7 × 7 in ultrahigh vacuum is experimentally investigated. The morphological and electrophysical properties of niobium-based nanostructures are studied by means of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. It is found that upon the deposition of niobium on a substrate at room temperature, clusters and nanoislands are formed on the silicon surface, having a characteristic lateral size of 10 nm with the metallic type of tunneling conductivity at low temperatures. Upon the deposition of niobium on a heated substrate, quasi-one-dimensional (1D) and quasi-two-dimensional (2D) structures with typical lateral dimensions of up to 200 nm and three-dimensional pyramidal islands with semiconducting type of tunneling conductivity at low temperatures are formed. 相似文献

Using a scanning tunnelling microscope we have observed an interesting new fault on the Si(111)-7 × 7 surface, corresponding to an adatom registry shift of 1 bulk unit cell in the [1̄1̄2] direction. We propose a model to account for the structure along the fault. 相似文献

We studied the adsorption, surface diffusion, and penetration, i.e. the initial processes of a Ni adatom on the H-terminated Si(001)-(2×1) surface by the first-principles theoretical calculations. As concerns the adsorption, two different types were found. When Ni is deposited onto the Si dimer row, it once captures H from the dimer Si, though it eventually returns H, with no activation energy barrier. Then, Ni moves to the most stable site, which is the off-centered bridge (B) site between the dimer rows, with the activation energy of 0.65 eV. On the other hand, Ni deposited between the dimer rows captures no H and moves to the B site without the energy barrier. Thus an adsorbed Ni atom invariably arrives at the most stable B site at the room temperature. As for the surface diffusion, it needs the activation energies of 0.66 and 1.19 eV for Ni to migrate from the B site in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the dimer row, respectively. Therefore, we concluded that the surface diffusion of Ni is restricted in the valley between the dimer rows at the room temperature. Furthermore, since the penetration of Ni is blocked on this surface, it was also concluded that the surface hydrogenation suppresses silicidation. 相似文献

Energetics and structural relaxations related to the surface complexes formed by mixed Si–Ge and C–C dimer adsorption on predefined adsorption sites on a (2×1) reconstructed Si (001) surface are investigated. Monte Carlo simulated annealing procedure is used in conjugation with Tersoff's semi-empirical potentials. The reliability check of the method is performed by comparing our results for the case of Si–Ge dimer adsorption with the results reported by using ab initio pseudo-potential calculations. The agreement is found to be good. For carbon dimer adsorption, the nucleation centers are found to be different from those for Si and Ge. It is seen that carbon has a tendency to get adsorbed at the dangling bond site, or to form a Si–C–C–Si chain like structure under specific conditions. 相似文献

Scanning tunneling microscope-light emission (STM-LE) from the Si(1 1 1)-(7×7) surface has been measured using silver tips. For silver tips photon emission was enhanced by more than 100 times as compared with that for tungsten or platinum–iridium alloy tips. A broad spectrum with a single peak at ∼2.25 eV was observed. The spectrum obtained can be reproduced by a theory based on the macroscopic dielectric response of the tip-sample system, indicating that the observed emission arises from the localized plasmons on the silver tip excited by tunneling electrons. Spatial variations in the emission intensity at the atomic scale was observed even under low bias voltage (2 V) and low tunneling current (1 nA) conditions. 相似文献

Atomic-scale Boolean logic gates (LGs) with two inputs and one output (i.e. OR, NOR, AND, NAND) were designed on a Si(100)-(2 × 1)-H surface and connected to the macroscopic scale by metallic nano-pads physisorbed on the Si(100)-(2 × 1)-H surface. The logic inputs are provided by saturating and unsaturating two surface Si dangling bonds, which can, for example, be achieved by adding and extracting two hydrogen atoms per input. Quantum circuit design rules together with semi-empirical elastic-scattering quantum chemistry transport calculations were used to determine the output current intensity of the proposed switches and LGs when they are interconnected to the metallic nano-pads by surface atomic-scale wires. Our calculations demonstrate that the proposed devices can reach ON/OFF ratios of up to 2000 for a running current in the 10 μA range. 相似文献

The diffusion of strontium atoms on the Si(111) surface at room temperature has been investigated using scanning tunnel microscopy
and simulation carried out in terms of the density functional theory and the Monte Carlo method. It has been found that the
reconstruction of a clean silicon surface with a 7 × 7 structure has a profound effect on the diffusion process. The average
velocity of motion of a strontium atom in a unit cell of the 7 × 7 structure has been calculated. The main diffusion paths
of a strontium atom and the corresponding activation energies have been determined. It has been demonstrated that the formation
of scanning tunnel microscope images of the Si(111)-7 × 7 surface with adsorbed strontium atoms is significantly affected
by the shift of the electron density from the strontium atom to the nearest neighbor silicon adatoms in the 7 × 7 structure. 相似文献

Adsorption of trimethylphosphine (TMP) on a Si(111)-(7 × 7) surface has been studied using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). We find that most of the TMP molecules are adsorbed preferably on center adatom sites at the surface. It is observed that the TMP molecule on a corner adatom is moved to a center adatom site at RT. TMP is more stable on the center adatom sites than on the corner adatom sites. 相似文献

Individual C60 molecules chemisorbed on Si(100)-(2 × 1) surfaces have been studied by scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. Chemisorption was realized by annealing the samples with room-temperature deposited adsorbates to 600°C. Spectroscopic results on individual adsorbates reveal a transition of their electronic structure from that of a near-free adsorbate to that of SiC, as the adsorbate-substrate interaction increases. 相似文献

The phase composition, electronic structure, and magnetic properties of ultrathin cobalt films (no thicker than 20 ?) applied
on a Si(111)7 × 7 surface at room temperature are studied by high-resolution photoelectron spectroscopy using synchrotron
radiation and magnetic linear dichroism. It is shown that, as the cobalt thickness increases, first interface cobalt silicide
and then an island (discontinuous) film of silicon-in-cobalt solid solution form on the silicon surface. A metal cobalt film
starts growing after the deposition of a ∼7-?-thick Co layer. It is found that the ferromagnetic ordering of the system, which
is characterized by surface magnetization, sets in after the deposition of a ∼6-?-Co layer at the stage of Co-Si solid solution
formation. 相似文献

High-resolution vibrational electron energy loss spectroscopy has been used to study the adsorbed state of NO on the Si(100)(2×1) surface. At 300 K, NO is adsorbed dissociatively on the Si(100) surface in the disordered structure, and the Si3N and SiOSi species are formed. By heating at 1200–1300 K, the O adatoms are removed from the surface and the silicon nitride is formed; the (2×1) structure is recovered, which is interpreted to indicate that the nitride is formed mainly in the subsurface region. 相似文献

Self-assembled growth of Au nanoclusters on the Si(111)-7 × 7 surface has been studied using kinetic Monte Carlo simulations.
A model considering various atomic processes of deposition, adsorption, diffusion, nucleation, and aggregation is introduced,
and the main energetic parameters are optimized based on the experimental results. The evolution of surface morphology during
Au growth is simulated in real time, from which the atomic behaviors of Au could be really captured. Most of Au atoms diffuse
on the substrate in the very early stage of growth, and Au clusters nucleate and grow with the increasing coverage. The competition
among various atomic processes results in the distinct distribution of Au clusters under different coverages. The growth conditions
are further optimized, showing that the higher uniformity of Au clusters would be obtained at a low deposition rate and an
optimal substrate temperature of about 380 K. 相似文献

We present the results of numerical modeling of the electronic properties of the Ge(111)-(2 × 1) surface in the vicinity of a P donor impurity atom near the surface. We have shown that, in spite of well-established bulk donor impurity energy level position at the very bottom of the conduction band, the surface donor impurity might produce an energy level below the Fermi energy, depending on impurity atom local environment. It has been demonstrated that the impurity located in subsurface atomic layers is visible in scanning tunneling microscopy experiment. The quasi-one-dimensional character of the impurity image observed in scanning tunneling microscopy experiments is confirmed by our computer simulations. 相似文献

In this article we investigate the complex 1D mesoscopic model of adatom diffusion and the evolution of an ordered phase on
the substrate surface. The analysis of the theoretical model is compared with the experimental results of the spreading of
Au
adatoms on Si(111)-(7×7) surface. The steady state solutions and their stability conditions are determined within the concept
of the traveling-wave solution. It is shown that the formation of the ordered
phase (5×2) and the difference in the diffusion of Au on (7×7) and on (5×2) structure results in a sharp edge of diffusion
front which corresponds to the coverage of a saturated
(5×2) phase. This edge moves linearly in time and α can be determined by experiment. The system of model equations enables
the damped waves solution or temporary evolution of two steps. 相似文献
