摘要
An even single step structure is observed by scanning tunneling microscopy for the Cu-Pd(17%)(1 1 5) surface in the chemically ordered phase. This is in contrast with the paired step structure of vicinals of (0 0 1) and (1 1 0) surfaces with higher average step-step distance of A(3)B L1(2) alloys. The three possible structures for vicinal surfaces involving steps and subsurface antiphase boundaries (APBs) are compared. The observation of a paired step structure for Cu-Pd(17%)(1 1 11) and of a single step structure for (1 1 5) allows estimating the subsurface APB energy. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
