Journal ArticleDOI
Atomic scale desorption through electronic and vibrational excitation mechanisms
T. C. Shen,C. Wang,G. C. Abeln,J. R. Tucker,Joseph W. Lyding,Phaedon Avouris,Robert E. Walkup +6 more
TL;DR: The scanning tunneling microscope has been used to desorb hydrogen from hydrogen-terminated silicon surfaces and a countable number of desorption sites can be created and the yield and cross section are obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanoscale patterning and oxidation of H‐passivated Si(100)‐2×1 surfaces with an ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscope
TL;DR: In this article, an ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscope was used to pattern the hydrogen terminated Si(100) 2×1 surface of a 3 nm pitch, achieving linewidths of 1 nm on a 3nm pitch.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breaking individual chemical bonds via STM-induced excitations
Phaedon Avouris,Robert E. Walkup,A. R. Rossi,H.C. Akpati,Peter Nordlander,T. C. Shen,G. C. Abeln,Joseph W. Lyding +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the character of the STM-induced excitations and showed that the strength of chemical bonds and their excitation energies can be decreased or increased depending on the strength and direction of the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
STM-induced H atom desorption from Si(100): isotope effects and site selectivity
Phaedon Avouris,Robert E. Walkup,A. R. Rossi,T. C. Shen,G. C. Abeln,J. R. Tucker,Joseph W. Lyding +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the scanning tunnelling microscopy-induced H and D atom desorption from Si(100)-(2 × 1):H(D).
