Atomically Resolved Electron Reflectivity at a Metal/Semiconductor Interface

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An atomically flat interface is achieved in the incoherent Al/Ge heterostructure using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) reveals a laterally periodic modulation of electron reflectivity with atomic resolution at the commensurate Al/Ge interfacial lattice, originating from the local electronic states.
