Electronic structure of low dimensional semiconductor systems
(Bilkent University, 1992)Recent progress made in the growth techniques has led to the fabrication of the artificial semiconductor systems of lower dimension. Electrons and holes in these materials have quantization different from those of the ... -
Initial stages of Pt growth on Ge (001) studied by scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory
(American Physical Society, 2004)We have studied the initial stages of submonolayer Pt growth on the Ge(001). We have observed several stable and meta-stable adsorption configurations of Pt atoms at various temperatures. Calculations indicate relatively ... -
Initial stages of SiGe epitaxy on Si(001) studied by scanning tunneling microscopy
(Elsevier BV, 1995)We have studied the initial stages of strained SiGe alloy growth on the Si(001)-(2 × 1) surface by scanning tunneling microscopy. The Si0.36Ge0.64 alloy was grown on the silicon substrate at various coverages (0.13-3.6 ML) ... -
Low-amplitude, force gradient imaging of Cu(100) surface using tunnel current feedback
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2004)The large corrugation amplitudes in scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) images of metal surfaces have been commonly attributed to the action of forces between the tip and the sample. We have investigated the Cu(100) surface ... -
