As a much-enriched supplement to the previous review paper entitled the “Effective work
functions for ionic and electronic emissions from mono-and polycrystalline surfaces”[Prog …

Thin-film materials, normally considered metals, can exhibit behavior that is very
nonmetallic. There is an increasing body of experimental information that this phenomenon …

Integration of Functional Oxides with Semiconductors describes the basic physical principles
of oxide/semiconductor heteroepitaxy and offers a view of the current state of the field. It …

X-ray photoelectron diffraction patterns of K 2 p core levels have been measured for the Si
(001) 2× 1-K surface. From a kinematical analysis of the diffraction patterns, it is concluded …

A scanning tunneling microscope combined with a field ion microscope, which we call “FI-
STM” has been constructed and tested successfully. The details of the principles and …

The Na and K adsorption on the Si (001)-2× 1 surface is studied by first-principles molecular
dynamics based on the norm-conserving pseudopotential. The stable adsorption sites are …

Na-induced 3× 1 reconstruction on the Si (111) surface was studied using a scanning
tunneling microscope and other tools. Atomic images showed that this surface consisted of …

Sodium doped silicon clusters (Si n Na m; 1⩽ n⩽ 14, 1⩽ m⩽ 5) produced by two types of
laser vaporization were studied. The adsorption of Na atoms on the Si n clusters leads the …

Abstract A single-domain Si (001) 2× 1-K surface has been made by K deposition onto a
room-temperature single-domain Si (001) 2× 1 substrate. Angle-resolved ultraviolet …

The electronic structure of potassium adatoms on the Si (001)-(2× 1) surface is studied by
first-principles calculations within the local-density-functional theory for a wide range of the K …
