Abstract
The STM study on the C-70/C-60 adsorption on the Cu(111)1 x 1 surface has shown that C-70/C-60 forms the 4 x 4 commensurate reconstruction. A small fraction of solute C-60 introduced to the C-70 film is found t o segregate at domain boundaries (DB) upon annealing the surface at ap proximately 350 degrees C. The segregation is found to be dependent on the detailed structure of the DB. This phenomenon is analyzed based o n the broken bond model.
