Spatially localized stress fields produced by instrumented, sharp indentation probes are a
route to testing the mechanical properties of materials at the smallest length scales. Here we …

By step fluctuation spectroscopy, using low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM), we
investigate step energies and relaxation on clean Pt (111) and Pd (111) surfaces at …

Step edge fluctuations on clean Ni (111) are investigated using low-energy electron
microscopy. When interpreted as capillary waves the fluctuations yield values of the surface …

This chapter discusses some of the most important imaging methods with low-energy
electrons, including: low-energy electron microscopy (), its extension to spin-polarized low …

Recent experiments that determine mass diffusion D s on the close packed surfaces of
vacuum compatible metals are reviewed. The results turn out to be approximately universal …

STM has been used to characterize fluctuation properties of segments of step edges partly
covered by C 60 on Ag (111) at room temperature. The distribution of C 60 at step edges …

This chapter discusses some of the most important imaging methods with low-energy
electrons, including: low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM), its extension to spin-polarized …

Gold single crystals were deformed by uniaxial compression tests with the help of an
experimental apparatus that allows one to characterize in situ, by UHV scanning tunneling …

Low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) images a beam of low-energy electrons that have
been reflected from a sample. The technique characterizes the sample's surface in real …

The NO chemisorption dynamics on ordered multilayer iron phthalocyanine (FePc) and
quasiamorphous multilayer tetra-t-butyl FePc (ttbu-FePc) films on a Au (111) substrate was …
