Using scanning tunneling microscopy together with the first-principles density functional theory calculations we study structural properties of the Si(111)5x2-Au surface covered by Ag adatoms. The STM topography data show that a…
We present a systematic study of the atomic and electronic structure of the Si(111)-(5x2)-Au reconstruction using first-principles electronic structure calculations based on the density functional theory. We analyze the structural models…
We propose a new structural model for the Si(111)-(5x2)-Au reconstruction. The model incorporates a new experimental value of 0.6 monolayer for the coverage of gold atoms, equivalent to six gold atoms per 5x2 cell. Five main theoretical…
Recent photoemission experiments on the Si(553)-Au reconstruction show a one-dimensional band with a peculiar ~1/4 filling. This band could provide an opportunity for observing large spin-charge separation if electron-electron interactions…
We have performed a density functional study of fifteen different structural models of the Si(557)-Au surface reconstruction. Here we present a brief summary of the main structural trends obtained for the more favourable models, focusing…
We have used density functional theory calculations based on the projector augmented wave method to investigate the electronic structure of Au-incorporated anatase TiO$_2$(001) surface. Due to the coordination with several level oxygens, Au…

The structural and electronic properties of gold decorated Si(335) surface are studied by means of density-functional calculations. The resulting structural model indicates that the Au atoms substitute some of the Si atoms in the middle of…
The Si(557)-Au surface, containing monatomic Au wires parallel to the steps, has been proposed as an experimental realization of an ideal one-dimensional metal. In fact, recent photoemission experiments on this system (Nature 402, 504…

A new structural model for the Si(111)5x2-Au reconstruction is proposed and analyzed using first-principles calculations. The basic model consists of a "double honeycomb chain" decorated by Si adatoms. The 5x1 periodicity of the honeycomb…
The one-dimensional reconstruction of Au/Ge(001) was investigated by means of autocorrelation functions from surface x-ray diffraction (SXRD) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Interatomic distances found in the SXRD-Patterson map are…
We present new atomistic models of amorphous silicon (a-Si) and hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) surfaces. The a-Si model included 4096 atoms and was obtained using local orbital density functional theory. By analyzing a slab model…
Ab initio total-energy density-functional methods with supercell models have been employed to calculate the c(2x2) structure of the Br-adsorbed Ag(100) and Au(100) surfaces. The atomic geometries of the surfaces and the preferred bonding…
We determine the stability and properties of interfaces of low-index Au surfaces adhered to TiO2(110), using density functional theory energy density calculations. We consider Au(100) and Au(111) epitaxies on rutile TiO2(110) surface, as…
Electronic structure calculations are performed to obtain the As-exposed Si(211) and the Te adsorbed As-exposed Si(211) surface. Arsenic-exposed Si(211) may be obtained by adsorbing As on Si(211) or by replacing surface Si atoms by As.…

The electronic structure of Au-Sn intermetallic layers of different compositions grown on Au(111) to the thickness of several nanometers has been studied in this work. The layer, interface and the substrate related components in the Au 4$f$…
While the phenomenon of metal substrate adatom incorporation into molecular overlayers is generally believed to occur in several systems, the experimental evidence for this relies on the interpretation of scanning tunnelling microscopy…
