摘要
We have investigated the two-domain (3x2)-reconstructed 3C-SiC(001) surface using angle-resolved inverse photoemission. Two unoccupied surface resonance bands at an energetic position of E-SR=2.4 eV and 4.1 eV, respectively, with respect to the valence band maximum (VBM) at the (Gamma) over bar point are clearly identified. Both surface resonances show a flat dispersion in (Gamma J) over bar- and (Gamma J') over bar -direction. We compare the experimentally determined electronic surface band structure with four models for the (3x2)-reconstruction of the 3C-SiC(001) surface discussed in literature. The model of the two-adlayer asymmetric silicon dimers yields a band structure which is in good agreement with the experimental observations.
