摘要
Adsorbed structures of Li or K on a Si(111) surface are investigated by RHEED and AES. For Li adsorption on a Si(111) surface, the RHEED pattern is changed from 7×7 to 1×1 with deposition time. Subsequent heating of the Si(111)1×1Li surface results in a 4×4 structure. Experimental data indicate that for adsorption of Li on the Si surface, twelve SiLi3 clusters are formed on the first layer by cutting backbonds of the adatoms of the dimer-adatom-stacking-fault (DAS) structure. For K adsorption on a Si(111) surface, saturation coverage is observed at room temperature. At the saturation coverage the RHEED pattern is quite different from that of Si(111)7×7Li.
