Spin excitations and correlations in scanning tunneling spectroscopy
In recent years inelastic spin-flip spectroscopy using a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope has been a very successful tool for studying not only individual spins but also complex coupled systems. When these systems interact with the electrons

Scanning tunneling spectroscopy in MgB2 [PDF]
We present extensive Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy (STM/S) measurements at low temperatures in the multiband superconductor MgB$_2$. We find a similar behavior in single crystalline samples and in single grains, which clearly shows the partial superconducting density of states of both the $π$ and $σ$ bands of this material.

Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy of Graphene on Graphite [PDF]
We report low temperature high magnetic field scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy of graphene flakes on graphite that exhibit the structural and electronic properties of graphene decoupled from the substrate. Pronounced peaks in the tunneling spectra develop with field revealing a Landau level sequence that provides a direct way to identify ...

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.

Scanning tunneling spectroscopy of subsurface Ag and Ge impurities in copper
We investigate single Ge and Ag impurities buried below a Cu(100) surface using low temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. The interference patterns in the local density of states are surface scattering signatures of the bulk impurities, which result
