Ey. Lee et al., SCANNING-TUNNELING-MICROSCOPY INVESTIGATION OF THE QUANTUM-SIZE EFFECT IN EPITAXIAL COSI2 SI(111)/, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 50(8), 1994, pp. 5807-5809
Nearly coherent overlayers of CoSi2 were grown on Si(111) by molecular
-beam epitaxy and examined by an in situ scanning-tunneling microscope
at 77 K. The quantum-size effect in CoSi2 overlayers was demonstrated
using scanning-tunneling microscopy. Subbands in the LAMBDA1 and LAMB
DA3 energy bands along the GAMMAL symmetry line were observed, and the
observed subband spacings agree well with independent band-structure
computations.
