Název v původním jazyce
Local electronic structure of doping defects on Tl/Si(111)1x1
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
The Tl/Si(111)1 x 1 surface is a representative of a 2D layer with Rashba-type spin-split electronic bands. To utilize the spin polarization, doping of the system should be understood on atomic level. We present a study of two types of atomic defects predicted to dope the considered electronic system - Si-induced vacancies and defects associated with the presence of extra Tl atoms. Structural calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) confirm the stability of the proposed defect structure consisting of an extra Si atom and missing seven Tl atoms as proposed in an earlier experimental study. The calculated spatial charge distributions indicate an enhancement of the charge around the extra Si atom, which correctly reproduces topographies of the corresponding scanning tunneling microscopy images while the calculated local densities of states of this system explain obtained scanning tunneling spectra. The DFT structural calculations let us determine the atomic structure of the defect caused by the presence of an extra Tl atom. The calculated spatial charge distributions show a ring-like feature around the extra Tl atom. The obtained results indicate a charge transfer from the central extra Tl atom to its vicinity in the agreement with earlier photoemission measurements.
