Journal ArticleDOI
Tunneling through a controllable vacuum gap
TL;DR: In this article, the first successful tunneling experiment with an externally and reproducibly adjustable vacuum gap is reported, based on the exponential dependence of the tunneling resistance on the width of the gap.
Journal ArticleDOI
7 × 7 Reconstruction on Si(111) Resolved in Real Space
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified adatom model with 12 adatoms per unit cell and an inhomogeneously relaxed underlying top layer was used for Si(111) reconstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scanning tunneling microscopy-from birth to adolescence
Gerd Binnig,Heinrich Rohrer +1 more
TL;DR: Muller et al. as discussed by the authors presented the historic development of Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and the physical and technical aspects have already been covered in a few recent reviews and two conference proceedings' and many others are expected to follow in the near future.
