Mechanistic insights into the oxidation of catalytically relevant AgCu near‐surface alloy interfaces
Recent heterogeneous catalysis studies have demonstrated that synergy between Ag and Cu can lead to more selective partial oxidation chemistries. We performed a series of scanning tunneling microscope experiments to gain a better understanding of the ...

Zero-bias anomaly in one-dimensional ultrathin metallic nanowires
The electronic properties of ultrathin bimetallic Au/Ag nanowires with 2-3 nm in diameter were explored by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) at liquid-nitrogen temperature.

Waveform-sequencing for scanning tunneling microscopy based pump-probe spectroscopy and pulsed-ESR
We present here the straightforward implementation of pump-probe methods into existing scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) systems. Our method uses the waveform-sequencing abilities of a standard arbitrary waveform generator (AWG) and a simple mechanical

Electrochemical Scanning Tunneling Microscopy
An ECSTM apparatus with an ideal tip using a homemade SSX-1A STM instrument has been constructed. STM and ECSTM tips were made by electrochemical etching and insulating with paraffin, silicon rubber or epoxy resin under an optical microscope. In situ imaging of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) shows that the leakage current passing through the

Spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy with quantitative insights into magnetic probes
Spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (spin-STM/S) have been successfully applied to magnetic characterizations of individual nanostructures. Spin-STM/S is often performed in magnetic fields of up to some Tesla, which may strongly
