Abstract:

We report the first atomically resolved images of ordered Au trimers on Si(111)root 3X root 3R30 degrees-Au using wave-front reconstruction of scanned-energy glancing-angle Kikuchi electron spectra. Each Au image has a resolution (full width at half magnitude) of less than 1 Angstrom. The images indicate that Au trimers art ordered and nonrotated within the surface plane and with respect to the second-layer Si plane providing direct evidence of the conjugate honeycomb-chained-trimer model for the Au-root 3 system.
