Various-thickness Ag islands were prepared on Si(111)-7$\times$7 using the one-step deposition at a high substrate temperature. An electronic state centered at -0.40$\sim$-0.15eV versus E$_{Fermi}$, detectable on the surface of the Ag…

We demonstrated on Ag(111) and Ag(100) surfaces that the reciprocal of the field emission resonance (FER) linewidth, which is proportional to the mean lifetime of resonant electrons in FER, may vary with the electric field. The variation on…

We study the electron spectral function of various zero-temperature spin-charge separated phases in two dimensions. In these phases, the electron is not a fundamental excitation of the system, but rather ``decays'' into a spin-1/2…

It has been shown that electron transitions, as measured in a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM), are related to chemical interactions in a tunnelling barrier. Here, we show that the shape and apparent height of subatomic features in an…

The local density of states of Ag(111) has been probed in detail on disordered terraces of varying width by dI/dV-mapping with a scanning tunneling microscope at low temperatures. Apparent shifts of the bottom of the surface-state band edge…

Using the plane wave pseudopotential method we performed density functional theory calculations on the stability of steps and self-diffusion processes on Ag(100). Our calculated step formation energies show that the {111}-faceted step is…

We study the light emission from a Ag(111) surface when the bias voltage on a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) junction is ramped into the field emission regime. Above the vacuum level, scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) shows a…

We investigated the electronic structure of the Si(111)--7$\times$7 surface below 20 K by scanning tunneling and photoemission spectroscopies and by density functional theory calculations. Previous experimental studies have questioned the…

The surface states of ABC-stacked few-layer graphene (FLG) are studied based on density-functional theory. These states form flat bands near the Fermi level, with the k-space range increasing with the layer number. Based on a tight-binding…

We report a quantitative low-temperature Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy (STS)study on the Ag(111) surface state over an unprecedented range of currents (50 pA to 6 $\mu$A)through which we can tune the electric field in the tunnel junction…

We report a study of structural and electronic properties of a germanium layer on Al(111) using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), low energy electron diffraction and core-level photoelectron spectroscopy. Experimental results show that a…

Stacking faults (SF) are important structural defects that play an essential role in the deformation of engineering alloys. However, direct observation of stacking faults at the atomic scale can be challenging. Here, we use the analytical…

A computational method is developed whereby the reflectivity of low-energy electrons from a surface can be obtained from a first-principles solution of the electronic structure of the system. The method is applied to multilayer graphene.…

The density of two-dimensional Ag adatom gases on W(110) is determined by monitoring local electron reflectivity using low energy electron microscopy (LEEM). This method of adatom concentration measurement can detect changes in adatom…

The reflectivity of low energy electrons from graphene on copper substrates is studied both experimentally and theoretically. Well-known oscillations in the reflectivity of electrons with energies 0 - 8 eV above the vacuum level are…

We have investigated electromagnetically induced transparency in the spectrum of selective reflection at the interface of Rb atom vapors and a dielectric nanocell window. A nanocell with atomic vapor column thicknesses ranging from 150 to…

Compared to traditional electromagnetic stealth (ES) materials, which are effective only within specific frequencies and orientations, intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) technology introduces a novel paradigm for achieving dynamic and…

A scattering method is used to calculate the surface band structure of Al(111) from 8.6 eV below the Fermi level to 9 eV above it. This method has rarely been implemented previously. The complete complex bulk and surface band structure is…

Results of nuclear resonance fluorescence experiments on $^{117}$Sn are reported. More than 50 $\gamma$ transitions with $E_{\gamma} < 4$ MeV were detected indicating a strong fragmentation of the electromagnetic excitation strength. For…

Si(111) and Ge(111) surface formation energies were calculated using density functional theory for various biaxial strain states ranging from -0.04 to 0.04, and for a wide set of experimentally observed surface reconstructions: 3x3, 5x5,…
