Step Patterns on Vicinal Reconstructed Surfaces
Step patterns on vicinal (2× 1) reconstructed surfaces of noble metals Au(110) and Pt(110), miscut towards the (100) orientation, are investigated. The free energy of the reconstructed surface with a network of crossing opposite steps is calculated in the strong chirality regime when the steps cannot make overhangs. It is explained why the steps are not perpendicular to the direction of the mis...
متن کاملMolecularly Controlled Modulation of Conductance on Azobenzene Monolayer-Modified Silicon Surfaces
Controlled modulation of silicon surface properties is of great importance for the development of siliconbased molecular electronic devices because of the ubiquitous role of silicon in microelectronics. In this article, photoresponsive azobenzene molecules were covalently grafted onto hydrogen-terminated Si(111) surfaces via Si-C linkages. These direct Si-C bond linkages are preferred over Si-O...
متن کاملThermal conductance of thin silicon nanowires.
The thermal conductance of individual single crystalline silicon nanowires with diameters less than 30 nm has been measured from 20 to 100 K. The observed thermal conductance shows unusual linear temperature dependence at low temperatures, as opposed to the T3 dependence predicted by the conventional phonon transport model. In contrast to previous models, the present study suggests that phonon-...
متن کاملOral ON THE PROPERTIES OF SURFACE RECONSTRUCTED SILICON NANOWIRES
One-dimensional nanostructures are attracting great interest for their potentially high impact in future molecular electronics applications, such as nanoswitches and nanocontacts [1]. Silicon nanowires (SiNWs) appear to be a special appealing alternative, due to the ideal interface compatibility with conventional Si-based technology and to the possibility to tune their conductive properties by ...
متن کاملNanostructural and electrical properties of functionally terminated self-assembled monolayers on silicon surfaces
Self-assembled monolayers SAMs having alkyl chains with typically 18 CH2 units and with different functional end groups methyl, thiol, thiophene, phenoxy, and biphenyl have been attached to hydroxylated 100 silicon surfaces. Their layer structure has been studied using grazing incidence x-ray reflectometry. An excellent data analysis is possible on the basis of a two layer model. One layer with...
