We present scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images of single-layer graphene crystals examined under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. The samples, with lateral dimensions on the micron scale, were prepared on a silicon dioxide surface by…
A detailed investigation of the structural and vibrational properties of various prestressed silicon nitride membranes patterned with one-dimensional photonic crystal structures is presented. The tensile stress-related deformation of the…
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is a powerful technique for imaging atomic structure and inferring information on local elemental composition, chemical bonding, and electronic excitations. However, traditional methods of visual…
The profile of suspended silicon nitride thin films patterned with one-dimensional subwavelength grating structures is investigated using Atomic Force Microscopy. We first show that the results of the profilometry can be used as input to…
The nanoscopic magnetic texture forming in a monolayer of iron on the (111) surface of iridium, Fe/Ir(111), is spatially modulated and uniaxially incommensurate with respect to the crystallographic periodicities. As a consequence, a…
We present an investigation of the atomic and electronic structure of graphene monolayer islands on the 6H-SiC(000-1)(3x3) (SiC(3x3)) surface reconstruction using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS). The orientation…
In this work we demonstrate that a free-standing van der Waals heterostructure, usually regarded as a flat object, can exhibit an intrinsic buckled atomic structure resulting from the interaction between two layers with a small lattice…
Hydrogen incorporation in diluted nitride semiconductors dramatically modifies the electronic and structural properties of the crystal through the creation of nitrogen-hydrogen complexes. We report a convergent beam electron-diffraction…
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) have traditionally addressed vastly different length scales - one resolving atoms, the other engineering macroscopic motion. Here we unite these two fields to…
To ensure the practical application of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides, it is essential to characterize their structural stability under external stimuli such as electric fields and currents. Using vacancy monolayer islands…
We grow AlN/4H-SiC and AlN/6H-SiC heterostructures by physical vapor deposition and characterize the heterointerface with nanoscale resolution. Furthermore, we investigate the spatial stress and strain distribution in these heterostructures…
The paper constructs a coarse-grained model to investigate dry sliding friction of the body-centered-cubic Fe micron-scale system by smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations and examines influences of the spring force on the characters…
The large interest in the properties of transition metal surfaces has been recently fostered by inelastic helium atom scattering experiments carried out by Hulpke and Luedecke. Sharp and giant anomalies in the surface phonon dispersion…
A photogrammetric method of stress analysis has been developed to test thin, nonstandard windows designed for hydrogen absorbers, major components of a muon cooling channel. The purpose of the absorber window tests is to demonstrate an…
Two different superstructures form when atomic H is incorporated in the Fe monolayer on Ir(111). Depending on the amount of H provided, either a highly ordered p(2x2) hexagonal superstructure or an irregular roughly square structure is…
Compression-induced buckling instability of metal thin films on a compliant base result in surface wrinkles. A stiff thin film, perfectly bonded to an infinitely deep pre-stretched dielectric elastomer (DE) substrate, is considered. Linear…
The growth and microstructural properties of ternary monolayers of two-dimensional hexagonal materials are examined, including both individual two-dimensional crystalline grains and in-plane heterostructures, multijunctions, or…
Self-organized monolayers of highly flexible \Frechet dendrons were deposited on graphite surfaces by solution casting. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) reveals an unprecedented variety of patterns with up to seven stable hierarchical…
Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) has become the technique of choice for quantitative characterization of atomic structure of materials, where the minute displacements of atomic columns from high-symmetry positions can be…
Nanoscale inhomogeneities are typical for numerous metallic alloys and crucially important for their practical applications. At the same time, stabilization mechanisms of such a state are poorly understood. We present a general overview of…
