Giant apparent lattice distortions in STM images of corrugated sp2-hybridised monolayers

Alfredo Pasquarello, Harald Brune, François Patthey, Stefano Rusponi, Markus Etzkorn, Donat Fabian Natterer, Anne Lehnert, Quentin Dubout, Laurent Claude

We report on the strengths and limitations of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) when used for characterising atomic-scale features of quasi two-dimensional materials, such as graphene and single layers of hexagonal boron nitride, which may present stron ...

Magnetism of Single Adatoms and Small Adsorbed Clusters Investigated by Means of Low-Temperature STM

Quentin Dubout

This thesis works reports on the magnetic properties of single transition metal atoms and hydrogenated compounds adsorbed on crystal surfaces. It is an experimental study, based on scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), initiated by the project of demonstrat ...

Magnetic Moment and Anisotropy of Individual Co Atoms on Graphene

Harald Brune, Oleg Yazyev, François Patthey, Pietro Gambardella, Fabio Donati, Gabriel Albert Autes, Quentin Dubout

We report on the magnetic properties of single Co atoms on graphene on Pt(111). By means of scanning tunneling microscopy spin-excitation spectroscopy, we infer a magnetic anisotropy of K = -8.1 meV with out-of-plane hard axis and a magnetic moment of 2.2 ...

Two Distinct Phases of Bilayer Graphene Films on Ru(0001)

Harald Brune, Marco Grioni, Stefano Rusponi, Donat Fabian Natterer, Emmanouil Frantzeskakis, Anne Lehnert, Daniela Pacilè, Quentin Dubout

By combining angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy we reveal the structural and electronic properties of multilayer graphene on Ru(0001). We prove that large ethylene exposure allows the synthesis of two distinct phase ...
