Scanning tunneling microscopy.
Bulletin of the Japan Institute of Metals, 1986 Abstract Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) is a new method for studying surface phenomena in semiconductors and metals on an atomic scale. A metal tip is scanned over the surface at such a small distance that a tunneling current in the nanoamp range flows under application of a voltage between tip and sample. Surface areas are scanned by moving the

Spectroscopic signature of the Stark-shifted Tamm-type surface state of La(0001)
New Journal of Physics, 2020 We have studied the Tamm-type surface state of La(0001) by tunneling spectroscopy within a wide range of tunneling currents from 0.1 nA to 8000 nA, thereby tuning the electric-field strength in a tip-vacuum-sample tunnel junction.

Quantum dot scanning tunneling microscopy for Majorana bound states in continuum
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 We propose a device composed of a quantum dot (QD) connected to a normal metal lead to detect Majorana bound states (MBSs), which are formed at the ends of a topological superconductor nanowire (TSNW) and coupled to the lead with spin-dependent ...
