Unraveling the intrinsic and robust nature of van Hove singularities in twisted bilayer graphene by scanning tunneling microscopy and theoretical analysis. [PDF]
Extensive scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy experiments complemented by first-principles and parametrized tight binding calculations provide a clear answer to the existence, origin, and robustness of van Hove singularities (vHs) in twisted ...

Quantum dot scanning tunneling microscopy for Majorana bound states in continuum
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 ...

Investigation of the unusual magnetic properties of Fe and Co on MgO with high spatial, energy and temporal resolution [PDF]
Nanometer-sized magnets are used as magnetic bits in data storage devices to hold information. As such devices are further miniaturized, the control of magnetism at the atomic scale becomes essential.

Sub-monolayer film growth of a volatile lanthanide complex on metallic surfaces
We deposited a volatile lanthanide complex, tris(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedionato)terbium(III), onto metal surfaces of Cu(111), Ag(111) and Au(111) in vacuum and observed well-ordered sub-monolayer films with low temperature (5 K) scanning ...

Combined I(V) and dI(V)/dz scanning tunneling spectroscopy
We present a method to simultaneously record I(V) and dI(V)dz spectra in a scanning tunneling microscopy measurement, where I, V and z refer to the tunnel current, sample bias and tip-substrate separation, respectively.

Attosecond coherent manipulation of electrons in tunneling microscopy
Shining a light on STM Whereas ultrafast light pulses can provide a window into the dynamics of some of the fastest processes in condensed matter systems, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) provides snapshots of atomic-scale spatial resolution of ...
