摘要
In a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) study of Si(1 1 1)-(7 x 7) surfaces, we observed the Si-related ring cluster and one new type of Ge-related ring cluster, For both clusters there is an electron transfer between them and the nearby Si centre atoms and their local density of states near the Fermi level is obviously reduced. Moreover, by differences in their electron transfer, the Si-related ring cluster and Ge-related ring cluster can be easily distinguished from each other. (C) 2002 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
