摘要
We have obtained clean surfaces of reduced SrTiO3(111) crystals and observed them by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) combined with reflection high energy diffraction. Two different surface structures are observed. One, obtained by annealing at the temperature similar to 1180 degrees C, is assigned to have a Sr-O-3-x outermost layer. The other, obtained by annealing at the temperature similar to 1220 degrees C, is assigned to have a Ti outermost layer. The STM images reveal that the reproducible preparation of dean and well-defined-surfaces of SrTiO3(111) is possible.
