| Abstract: | The surface reconstruction of SrTiO3(110) is studied with scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The reversible phase transition between (4×1) and (5×1) is controlled by adjusting the surface metal concentration Sr] or Ti]. Resolving the atomic structures of the surface, DFT calculations verify that the phase stability changes upon the chemical potential of Sr or Ti. In particular, the density of oxygen vacancies is low on the thermodynamically stabilized SrTiO3(110) surface. |
