✦ Synopsis
Ž
. Ž . Ž . Adsorptions of monovalent atoms noble and alkali metals of submonolayer coverages 0.1-0.2 ML on the Si 111 -63 =63-Ag surface commonly induced similar 621 =621 superstructures, all of which exhibited high electrical conductances. Common processes seem to work among these adsorbates in such phenomena; the valence electrons of the adsorbates are Ž . transferred to the substrate surface-state bands carrier doping . On the contrary, adsorption of C molecules on the 60 63 =63-Ag surface reduced the conductance, presumably because conduction electrons in the surface-state band of the Ž . substrate are transferred to the molecules due to their strong electronegativity acceptor-type adsorbates .

We investigated the force interactions between a Si tip and a Si(111)Õ3 Â Õ3-Ag surface, as well as between a Si tip and an Ag(111) surface, using non-contact atomic force microscopy (AFM) operating in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV). The AFM images on the Si(111)Õ3 Â Õ3-Ag surface showed three types of cont
Using electron energy loss spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and conductance measurements in the temperature range 20-500 K we have investigated doping of two-dimensional Mg silicide using the Sb surface phase. The doping process was performed in two steps including formation of the Sb surface phase
