Abstract

Structural analysis of the surface reconstructions investigated by ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and diffraction (TED) is shown. By TED intensity analysis a new structural model of Si(111)-7×7 is derived. The model basically consists of 12 adatoms arranged locally in the 2×2 structure, nine dimers on the sides of the triangular subunits of the 7×7 unit cell and a stacking fault layer. UHV–HREM of Si (111)-7×7 surface is commented.
