Theory of the scanning tunneling microscope

TL;DR: In this paper, a metal tip is scanned along the surface while ad justing its height to maintain constant vacuum tunneling current, and a contour map of the surface is generated.

Theory of the scanning tunneling microscope

TL;DR: A theory for tunneling between a real surface and a model probe tip, applicable to the recently developed "scanning tunneling microscope" is presented and it is concluded that for the AuOlO measurements the experimental "image" is relatively insensitive to the positions of atoms beyond the first atomic layer.

The structure and properties of metal-semiconductor interfaces

TL;DR: In this article, the contributions of surface science research to the understanding of metal-semiconductor interfaces are surveyed and a wide range of ultra-high vacuum techniques now available for probing metal-semiconductor interfaces on an atomic scale, and assess the current state of knowledge of the chemical, geometrical, and electronic structures of MSS interfaces.
