摘要：
An ordered surface layer of Ca on TiO2(110) has been prepared and studied after annealing of a TiO2-rutile crystal, During the annealing process Ca impurities from the bulk segregate to the surface. A well ordered p(3 x 1) reconstruction has been observed by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Calculations have shown that the p(3 x 1) reconstruction has the lowest energy. Every third Ca ion in the [001] direction is elevated by around 1 Angstrom. Therefore, the STM contrast is mainly due to calcium and caused by geometry rather than electronic effects.
