Scanning tunnelling microscopy study of silicon surfaces in ultra high vacuum

Clean silicon surfaces and the reactions of carbon and hydrogen with the surfaces are studied in UHV with STM and LEED. The STM is the first STM to achieve atomic resolution in UHV in Canada. The details of its construction as well as the methods for resistively heating silicon surfaces, transferrin...
