Abstract
Electrical conductance of point contacts between a metal tip and semiconductor surfaces has been measured with scanning tunneling microscope (STM) . The conductance depends strongly on the electronic structures of semiconductor surfaces. It also changes with a distribution of steps around its contact area. These results suggest that it is due to the conductivity via surface electronic states, that is, surface state conductivity.
