AbstractWe have studied the interaction of C60 with clean Si(111) and sub-monolayer Co covered Si(111) using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Our STM results indicate that C60 has little mobility at room temperature (RT) on Co/Si(111). After annealing to 450 °C, STM images show a regular arrangement of partially decomposed C60. XPS reveals a partial decomposition of C60 on Co/Si(111) at 520 °C, and total decomposition to form a SiC-3×3 phase at 720 °C. These results show that Co catalyses C60 decomposition resulting in the formation of the ordered SiC-3×3 phase ∼200 °C below that on clean Si(111).

The effect of deposition time on the surface coverage of sublimation deposited solid-phase glycine and proline molecules onto a Ge(100) surface was studied at room temperature using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The STM images obtained at various coverages of glycine and proline adsorbed on the Ge(100) surface showed that (i) the adsorption rate for both molecules gradually decreased with increasing deposition time, obeying the Langmuir adsorption model, and (ii) the coverage of glycine on the Ge(100) surface is higher than that of proline under the same deposition conditions, which may be due to the differences in their molecular weight or molecular sticking probability.

ABSTRACTStructural features of TiS2 were studied by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and single-crystal X-ray diffraction was applied as a complementary technique. STM images in air and at room temperature revealed, beside the trigonal symmetry of the lattice, several new features having this symmetry as well. We conclude that these features not only are to be described by structural defect phenomena which affect octahedral sites in the 1T-CdI2 structure but tetrahedral sites as well. Sample orientation determination by X-ray diffraction provides a unique relation between feature types and sites. A model is proposed in which displaced Ti atoms account for the observed features.

AbstractThe thermal evolution of the interface formed by room temperature (RT) deposition of Ni atoms (coverage 0.1, 0.5, 1.2 ML) onto a Ge(111)-c(2 × 8) surface has been studied with the use of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Atomically resolved STM images revealed that, at RT, the boundaries between the different c(2 × 8) domains acted as nucleation sites for Ni atoms. After annealing the surface with deposited material at 473 to 673 K the formation of nano-sized islands of NixGey compounds was observed. In addition, the occurrence of ring-like structures was recorded. Based on the dual-polarity images the latter were assigned to Ni atoms adsorbed on Ge adatoms.
