Abstract
Thr atomic structure of the Si(112)7 X 1-In surface has been studied with s canning tunneling microscopy (STM) and low-energy electron diffraction (LEE D), and a model is proposed on the basis of the high resolution dual bias S TM images and the systematic weakening of the LEED fractional-order beams, for further investigation. In sharp contrast to what has been reported for the Si(112)6 X 1-Ga surface, indium atoms in the Si(112)7 X 1-In surface do not occupy the step-edge site.
