Abstract

The structure of vicinal Si(111) surfaces as a function of misorientation (16°-[\(2\overline {11}\)] →16°-[\(\overline 2 11\)]) was studied by LEED measurements. We find significant differences in morphology dependent on the step orientation. In part drastical changes of the structure have been observed after evaporation of small amounts of Ni or Pd, and after additional high temperature heat treatment. For Ag/Si(111) no changes were observed.
