The technology to build and study nanowires with sizes ranging from individual atoms to
tens of nanometres has been developing rapidly over the last few years. We survey the …

Strontium titanate (SrTiO3) is a perovskite material with a variety of useful yet complex
surface structures. Recent studies of SrTiO3 have revealed how surface treatment can give …

Pt atoms adsorbed onto Ge (001) surface form extremely well-ordered nanowire arrays by
self-organization after high-temperature annealing. Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy …

The step-flow growth mode is used to fabricate Si and Ge nanowires with a width of 3.5 nm
and a thickness of one atomic layer (0.3 nm) by self-assembly. Alternating deposition of Ge …

A number of different families of nanowires which self-assemble on semiconductor surfaces
have been identified in recent years. They are particularly interesting from the standpoint of …

Many books explain the theory of atomistic computer simulations; this book teaches you how
to run them This introductory" how to" title enables readers to understand, plan, run, and …

The epitaxial growth of artificial two-dimensional metals at interfaces plays a key role in
fabricating heterostructures for nanoelectronics. Here, we present the growth of bismuth …

The growth of silicene nano-ribbons (NRs) on Ag (110) substrate is re-investigated using
scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) …

We discuss the current state of a promising area of modern physics, the study of the physical
properties of metal nanowires and atomic chains. One-dimensional nanostructures are …

Chemical identification of individual atoms in mixed In–Sn chains grown on a Si (100)-(2× 1)
surface was investigated by means of room temperature dynamic noncontact AFM …
