Theory of Single-Atom Imaging in the Scanning Tunnelling Microscope

Lang, N. D.

Abstract We discuss first the current flow in the scanning tunnelling microscope./1/ The vacuum tunnelling current between two planar metallic electrodes with a small bias voltage between them was studied in the instance in which there is an adsorbed atom on each electrode, with one electrode corresponding to the tip, and the other to the sample (a surface with a chemisorbed atom)./2/ The tip and the sample are thus treated on an equal footing.
