Surface atomic structure of InAs((111)over-bar)2x2 and InSb((111)over-bar)2x2 studied by core level spectroscopy

• Surface sensitive high resolution core level spectroscopy has been applied to the molecular beam epitaxy grown InAs((111) over bar)2 x 2 and InSb((111) over bar)2 x 2 surfaces. For both systems the In 4d core level consists of one dominating component while the Group V core levels are deconvoluted into four components. This analysis is consistent with a surface model where the topmost layer consists entirely of arsenic or antimony. In this model, Group V atoms form trimers bound to Group V atoms in the first double layer, leaving a single Group V rest atom per unit cell.
