This book was released on 2010 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the nanometer scale, the local variation of the electronic density of states of aluminum based complex metallic alloys (quasicrystals and approximants) is experimentally investigated by low temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy. We report on the correlation between the local variations of the electronic density of states and the electrical resistivity. The surface structure is investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy, low energy electron diffraction, and X-ray photoemission diffraction. Experimental results are interpreted on the basis of the respective bulk structure models.
Download or read book Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and Spectroscopy written by Dawn Bonnell and published by Wiley. This book was released on 1993-03-29 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) provides three-dimensional real- space images of surfaces at high spatial resolution. When the surface is flat and clean, even atoms can be imaged. Its extreme usefulness has led it to near instantaneous acceptance as a characterization tool. This book covers fundamental concepts of STM operation, image interpretation, instrumentation, and techniques for various applications. It als contains advanced treatments of theory and spectroscopy. Surface physicists, electrochemists, materials scientists, and other scientists who see a use for STM will find the depth of coverage and accompanying reference lists in this book essential to their work. In addition, those who wish to add the capabilities of probe microscopy to their operations, such as microscopists and quality control engineers, will find the basic information in this book.

This book was released on 2013-03-13 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first edition of "Scanning 'funneling Microscopy I" has been pub lished, considerable progress has been made in the application of STM to the various classes of materials treated in this volume, most notably in the field of adsorbates and molecular systems. An update of the most recent develop ments will be given in an additional Chapter 9. The editors would like to thank all the contributors who have supplied up dating material, and those who have provided us with suggestions for further improvements. We also thank Springer-Verlag for the decision to publish this second edition in paperback, thereby making this book affordable for an even wider circle of readers. Hamburg, July 1994 R. Wiesendanger Preface to the First Edition Since its invention in 1981 by G. Binnig, H. Rohrer and coworkers at the IBM Zurich Research Laboratory, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has devel oped into an invaluable surface analytical technique allowing the investigation of real-space surface structures at the atomic level. The conceptual simplicity of the STM technique is startling: bringing a sharp needle to within a few Angstroms of the surface of a conducting sample and using the tunneling cur rent, which flows on application of a bias voltage, to sense the atomic and elec tronic surface structure with atomic resolution! Prior to 1981 considerable scepticism existed as to the practicability of this approach.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is concentrated on the study of two isomers of an organic molecule -methylterrylene- adsorbed on a thin insulating _lm (a NaCl bi or tri-layer) deposited on a metallic substrate -Cu(111)-, by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and Spectroscopy (STM and STS). Most STM studies of adsorbed atoms and molecules up to now have been performed on metallic or semiconducting surfaces. In this situation, the object is strongly electronically coupled to the substrate. The atomic or molecular levels are then shifted and broadened in energy, with the consequence that some of the intrinsic properties of the object are lost, to a more or less large extend. It has been shown recently that interposing between this object and the substrate an insulating leads to an efficient decoupling which allows to recover some of these properties. This decoupling effect of the insulating layer is at the center of the work reported here. Experiments where the molecules are directly adsorbed on the metal are compared with experiments where the molecule is decoupled from the Cu(111) surface by a NaCl bi-layer. The interpretation of these experimental results is supported and extended by current and image calculations with the Elastic Scattering Quantum Chemistry method where the structure of the Metal-insulating layer-molecule-metal junction is described at the atomic level. In the framework of molecular electronics, where the objective is to design and use molecules as electronic devices, understanding and controlling the coupling of a molecule to its environment is a central issue.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Superconductivity is a remarkable quantum phenomenon in which a macroscopic number of electrons form a condensate of Cooper pairs that can be described by a single quantum wave function. According to the celebrated Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory of superconductivity, there is a minimum length scale (the coherence length) below which the condensate has a rigid quantum phase. The fate of superconductivity in a system with spatial dimensions smaller than [the coherence length] has been the subject of intense interest for decades and recent studies of superconductivity in ultra-thin epitaxial metal films have revealed some surprising behaviors in light of BCS theory. Notably, it was found that superconductivity remains robust in thin lead films with thicknesses orders of magnitude smaller than the coherence length (i.e. in the extreme two dimensional limit). Such studies raise the critical question: what happens to superconductivity as all dimensions are reduced toward the zero dimensional limit? By controlling the lateral size of ultra thin 2D islands, we systematically address this fundamental question with a detailed scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy study. We show that as the lateral dimension is reduced, the strength of the superconducting order parameter is also reduced, at first slowly for dimensions larger than the bulk coherence length, and then dramatically at a critical length scale of ~ 40nm. We find this length scale corresponds to the lateral decay length of the order parameter in an island containing regions of different heights and different superconducting strength. Overall, our results suggest that fluctuation corrections to the BCS theory are important in our samples and may need to be systematically addressed by theory.
