摘要
The structure of saturated chlorine layer on Ag(111) has been studied with low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory. For the first time atomic-resolution STM images of saturated chlorine coverage have been obtained. STM images demonstrate coexistence of the domain with (3x3)-like reconstruction and numerous bright objects identified as Ag3Cl7 clusters. According to our model supported by DFT calculations, clusters are formed on the boundaries between the adjacent (3 x 3) antiphase domains. These boundaries have a characteristic triangular shape and are formed by six chlorine atoms chemisorbed on the triangular silver island with local periodicity (1 x 1).
