摘要
A variety of reconstruction models is studied for the Si(110)-(16x2) surface using first-principles calculations. Assuming appropriate rebonding of edge atoms and surface chains buckled in antiphase, we show that steps along the [(1) over bar 12] direction yielding a trench indeed lower the surface energy. We explain the long-range surface reconstruction and develop a geometry model based on steps, adatoms, tetramers, and interstitials. The model is able to explain the stripes of paired pentagons seen obviously in empty-state scanning tunneling microscopy images.
