Scanning tunnelling microscopy of suspended graphene.
Suspended graphene has been studied by STM for the first time. Atomic resolution on mono- and bi-layer graphene samples has been obtained after ridding the graphene surface of contamination via high-temperature annealing. Static local corrugations (ripples) have been observed on both types of structures.
متن کاملScanning tunnelling microscopy studies of silicides
We review the topic of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) studies of silicides, with an emphasis on fundamental scientific issues that can be addressed using STM and ballistic-electron-emission microscopy (BEEM). The discussion is organized according to the topics of structure (atomic scale precursors, surface reconstructions, bulk structures, interfaces) kinetics and growth (direct atomic me...
متن کاملScanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy of MgB2
Experiments of the scanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS) have been carried out on the layered superconductor MgB2 with Tc = 39 K. The measurements were done at 5 K using a Pt-Ir tip and the single-crystal grain. The STM images show characteristic hexagonal patterns with the distances of nearest neighbour atoms to be 0.3 – 0.35 nm and 0.15 – 0.2 nm, respectively, which are co...
متن کاملScanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy of ultra-flat graphene on hexagonal boron nitride.
Graphene has demonstrated great promise for future electronics technology as well as fundamental physics applications because of its linear energy-momentum dispersion relations which cross at the Dirac point. However, accessing the physics of the low-density region at the Dirac point has been difficult because of disorder that leaves the graphene with local microscopic electron and hole puddles...
متن کاملInsulators at the ultrathin limit: electronic structure studied by scanning tunnelling microscopy and scanning tunnelling spectroscopy
Considerable progress has been made recently, using scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM), scanning tunnelling spectroscopy (STS) and local density functional theory (DFT), in examining the atomic structure and electronic properties of ultrathin insulating films. This article reviews pertinent results to date with special emphasis on ultrathin MgO films on Ag(001) surfaces. Using STS, the layer-...
