Popis: | The unoccupied electronic structure of the model interface Sn/Si(111)-α-(3)1/2 has been measured at room temperature (RT) using angle-resolved inverse photoemission spectroscopy (KRIPES). In addition to a partly occupied surface band crossing the Fermi level, there is a second unoccupied surface state located 1.5 eV above EF; the existence of these two surface states is not compatible with the single adatom site used to describe the α-(3)1/2 reconstruction. These surface states receive a natural explanation, once many-body effects are introduced, in the framework of a dynamical fluctuations model, where two types of adatom site, reminiscent of a possible low-temperature (3×3) phase, coexist at RT. |
