For the first time, during the investigation of the Ag submonolayer on the Ge(111) system, large, independent domains of the Ge (111)-(3×1) Ag phase were imaged and investigated. Previous studies have reported it only as small insets between Ge (111)-(4×4) Ag and Ge (111)- c (2×8) domains. The transmission electron diffraction data were analyzed using a Direct Methods approach and "heavy-atom holography," with the result of an atomic model of the structure similar to that of Ge (111)-(3×1) Ag .

The systematic comparison of the atomic structure of solid compounds has become an important task in crystallography, chemistry, physics and materials science, in particular in the context of structure prediction and structure determination of crystalline solids. In this work, an efficient and robust algorithm for the comparison of periodic structures is presented, which is based on the mapping of the point patterns of the two structures into each other. This algorithm has been implemented as the moduleCMPZin the structure visualization and analysis programKPLOT.

In order to give experimental insights on the atomic structure of the Si atomic wires developing on the β-SiC(100) surface, we use synchrotron radiation-based x-ray diffraction at grazing incidence to study a network of such atomic lines in a 5x2 surface array. Our results lead to an accurate surface and sub-surface structure determination evidencing a structure in agreement with a two adlayer symmetric dimer reconstruction. This atomic structure is significantly different from the 3x2 surface structure, giving new insights on the Si atomic lines stability.

AbstractWe have studied the effects of deposition conditions on the epitaxial orientation of Au or TiO2 (110) and on the atomic structure of Au/TiO2 interfaces by combined EBSD and HRTEM. Two experimental conditions were explored consisting of deposition of a 12 nim Au film at 300K followed by annealing at 770K and direct deposition of a 12 nm Au film at 770K. Deposition at 300K followed by annealing at 770K give rise to a (111)Au//(110)TiO2 epitaxial orientation relationship, while direct deposition at 700K temperature give rise to an epitaxial orientation relationship given by (112)Au//(110)TiO2. For both orientations, two epitaxial variants are observed which are twin related. The (112)Au//(110)TiO2 orientation has been found to minimize the interfacial lattice misfit while maximizing the number of Au-Ti bonds across the interface.
