STM Images

Atomic-resolution STM image of chromium nitride(001) surface. Individual bumps are Cr atoms, while dark regions are pits on the surface.
Mn3N2(010) Surface imaged with a spin-polarized STM tip. 'Wide' and 'narrow' rows are chemically equivalent but magnetically opposite.
Mn3N2(010) surface showing several terraces separated by monolayer-height steps (white stripes). Image is spin-polarized, acquired using a magneticall
Low-temperature STM image of GaN(000-1) surface with atomic resolution of Ga adatom 3x3 structure. Image was acquired in a cryogenic STM after transfe
Atomic-resolved STM image of Mn3N2(010) surface showing each individual Mn atom. Two differently-bonded Mn atoms show up as 'bright' and 'dark' balls.
Atomic-scale, spin-resolved STM image of Mn3N2(010) surface. 'Wide' and 'narrow' rows correspond to 'up' and 'down' spin. Image was acquired in UHV us
High-resolution STM image of self-assembled TBrPP-Co molecules on noble-metal [Cu(111)] substrate. Image was acquired at cryogenic temperature (4.6 K)
Atomic-resolution STM image of rock-salt scandium nitride(001) surface grown under N-rich conditions. Little balls are Sc atoms. A 1-monolayer step di
