- Results of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) show that two different kinds of surface structures coexist on the (110) surface of Pt 80Fe20. The predominant structure corresponds well to the missing row type (1*2) reconstruction previously observed on, for example Pt(110), whereas the minority domains show a faintly buckled structure with approximately (1*1) geometry. Based on the STM images, the authors propose that the two domains have different surface chemical compositions and correspond to two different metallurgical phases known for the PtFe system at this composition.

- Scanning tunneling microscopy has been performed on the reconstructed polar surface of substoichiometric VC0.80(111). A mixture of (8×1) and (3 × 3) R30°reconstructed areas was found. The (8×1) periodicity could be determined to be the result of a square-lattice surface layer superimposed on the hexagonal substrate. As this square lattice must have its origin in strong and directed in-plane bonds with the relatively large length of about 2.9, it can be deduced to consist of vanadium atoms. Lateral positions of these vanadium surface atoms with respect to the substrate are suggested from the measured surface corrugation. The (3 × 3) R30°structure was found in small triangular areas which can, due to the measured step heights between the two reconstructions, be believed to be carbon terminated. The occurrence of a reconstructed surface with a reduced atomic concentration is in contrast to what is known for TiC(111) and NbC(111), both having stable (1×1) surfaces. A qualitative explanation for this difference is suggested. © 1992 The American Physical Society.
