摘要
SrTiO3(100)-(root 5 x root 5)-R26.6 surfaces were studied by means of high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. By varying the bias voltage in the occupied state, it was possible to observe the arrangement of titanium and oxygen atoms in the unit cells of a (root 5 x root 5) surface superstructure, which revealed that the TiO2 layer is the terminating plane of the (root 5 x root 5) surface. In the STM images, peculiar protrusions were seen at the oxygen fourfold hollow site responsible for root 5 x root 5 periodicity. The protrusions are asymmetrical in contrast, which would be an important consideration in proposing accurate structural models for (root 5 x root 5) surface superstructures. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.
