Many quasi-one-dimensional (1D) materials are experimental approximations to the
textbook models of Peierls instabilities and collective excitations in 1D electronic systems …

The spectroscopy of quasi-one-dimensional (1D) systems has been a subject of strong
interest since the first experimental observations of unusual line shapes in the early 1990s …

The ground state property of a Au-induced atomic wire array on a stepped Si (553) surface
with interesting 1D metallic bands was investigated. Electron diffraction and scanning …

We report on the systematic tuning of the electronic band structure of atomic wires by
controlling the density of impurity atoms. The atomic wires are self-assembled on Si (111) by …

The structural and electronic phase diagrams of Au on Si (557) are established using
scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and angle-resolved photoemission. Five phases …

The Si (557) surface with Au adsorbates consists of a well ordered array of atomic chains,
which exhibit interesting one-dimensional (1D) metallic band structure with two nearly half …

We report the discovery of a novel kinetic pathway for the formation of one-dimensional Fe
nanowires of single atom width on stepped Cu (111) surfaces. This pathway, identified …

Uniform arrays of monatomic Fe chains are realized on a vicinal Cu (111) surface with a
regular step array. Deposited Fe atoms are first embedded into the flat Cu (111) terrace at …

We present here a comprehensive search for the structure of the Si (553)-Au reconstruction.
More than 200 different trial structures have been studied using first-principles density …

We employ angle-resolved photoemission to characterize the electronic band structure of
the Pb “nanowire” array self-assembled on a stepped Si (111) surface. Despite the highly …
