Motivated by recent numerical studies of Ag on Pt (111), we derive an expression for the
RKKY interaction mediated by surface states, considering the effect of anisotropy in the …

Locked-to-sliding phase transition has been studied in the driven two-dimensional Frenkel-
Kontorova model with the square symmetric substrate potential. It is found that as the driving …

The trigonal strain-relief pattern formed by an Ag bilayer on Pt (111) is a prominent example
for dislocation networks and their use as nanotemplates. However, its atomic structure has …

The second layer of Ag on Pt (111) is experimentally observed to form a striped dislocation
pattern with Ag stripes alternating between fcc and hcp stacking. We address the origins of …

Many heteroepitaxial metal-on-metal systems reconstruct into patterns of alternating
domains of stacking faults separated by partial misfit dislocations. Here, we use two …

We consider the different structures that a magnetic nanowire adsorbed on a surface may
adopt under the influence of external magnetic or electric fields. First, we propose a …

Surfaces of some materials exhibit vastly different structure than the bulk-truncated atomic
structure due to the reduced surface atomic coordination that leads to surface dangling …

This research focuses on the stress and structure evolution observed in-situ during the
earliest stages of thin film growth in Cu on Au (111)-reconstruction. For the research, an ultra …

This research focuses on the stress and structure evolution observed in-situ during the
earliest stages of thin film growth in Cu/Au (111)-) 3 22 (× system. For the research, an ultra …

Die Adsorption eines Teilchens oder Moleküls aus der Gasphase ist typischerweise der
erste Schritt in heterogen katalysierten Prozessen. Einflußgrößen auf die Bindungsenergie …
