Pre-growth preparation of the Si(001) clean surface is a key process for Ge/Si UHV MBE. It usually includes pre-cleaning by liquid etchants, thermal pretreatment in UHV and removal of SiO2 or a different protective coat prior to MBE.…
Structure of the Ga-stabilized GaAs(001)-c(8x2) surface has been studied using rocking-curve analysis of reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). The c(8x2) structure emerges at temperatures higher than 600C, but is unstable…
The c(6x2) is a reconstruction of the SrTiO3(001) surface that is formed between 1050-1100oC in oxidizing annealing conditions. This work proposes a model for the atomic structure for the c(6x2) obtained through a combination of results…

Recent experimental studies have shown that well-annealed, unstrained Si(105) surfaces appear disordered and atomically rough when imaged using scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). We construct new models for the Si(105) surface that are…
The Te-covered Si(111) surface has received recent interest as a template for the epitaxy of van der Waals (vdW) materials, e.g. Bi$_2$Te$_3$. Here, we report the formation of a Te buffer layer on Si(111)$-$(7$\times$7) by low-energy…
