We present here the historic development of Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM);
thephysical and technical aspects have already been covered in a few recent reviews and …

Ballistic-electron emission microscopy (BEEM) is a relatively new technique, based on the
scanning-tunneling microscope, to study potential steps at interfaces with a lateral resolution …

We present a theory for tunneling between a real surface and a model probe tip, applicable
to the recently developed ''scanning tunneling microscope.''The tunneling current is found to …

The scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) was invented by Binnig and Rohrer and
received a Nobel Prize of Physics in 1986. Together with the atomic force microscope (AFM) …

Presented here is an overview of the present status and future prospects of scanning
tunneling microscopy. Topics covered include the physical basis of the scanning tunneling …

A scanning tunneling microscope (STM) can provide atomic‐resolution images of samples
in ultra‐high vacuum, moderate vacuum, gases including air at atmospheric pressure, and …

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and its extensions have become revolutionary tools
in the fields of physics, materials science, chemistry, and biology. These new microscopies …

In this paper, a systematic derivation of the tunneling matrix elements in three-dimensional
space is presented. Based on a modified Bardeen tunneling theory, explicit expressions for …

We present a simple model calculation for electron tunneling between a metal probe tip and
a metal surface with a chemisorbed molecule. It is shown that under suitable conditions …

We discuss the possible application of the scanning tunneling microscope (STM) to surface
electronic spectroscopy, with an explicit calculation of the voltage-dependent tunneling …
