Atomic structures of the clean Si(110)-"16x2" surface are studied by scanni
ng tunneling microscopy (STM). High-resolution STM images reveal that the e
lemental structure in the "16x2" is a pair of pentagons. In the empty-state
s images the elemental structure is clearly resolved in ten protrusions, wh
ile in eight in the filled-states images. In order to clarify the atomic ar
rangement of the pentagons, we pay attention to the disordered area where t
he elemental structures are isolated on the bulk-terminated surface. The bu
lk-terminated surface structure, on which the pentagons are located, is wel
l understood by the rotational-relaxation structural model. In consideratio
n of the registry of the pentagon for the rotational-relaxation structure,
a "tetramer-interstitial'' model is proposed for the elemental structure, t
ogether with three other possible structural models.
