Abstract

We investigated adsorbed Si dimers on Si(001) at ∼100°C with atom-tracking STM to determine the effect of various local environments on surface dynamics. Specifically, we find an asymmetry in the dimer diffusion along a buckled A-type step. We also measure dimer repulsion and attraction respectively from in-row and adjacent-row vacancy defects. These findings lend insight into the nature of the dimer-substrate bond and defect structure. © 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
