F. Thibaudau et al., A STM STUDY ON COMPARED CHEMICAL REACTIVITIES OF DIFFERENT SI(111) SURFACES - COPPER GROWTH AND FERROCENE ADSORPTION, Microscopy microanalysis microstructures, 4(5), 1993, pp. 419-427
As an illustration of our activities in the domain of near field micro
scopies, we present a comparative STM study on Cu and ferrocene adsorp
tion on different Si(111) surfaces: B-Si(111) square-root 3 x square-r
oot 3 R(30-degrees) with various concentration of boron and a Si(111)
7 x 7. We show that square-root 3 phases of boron doped surfaces are r
elatively chemical inert. We thus correlate the surface reactivity wit
h the density of outer Si dangling bonds.
