Recent development of the scanning tunneling microscope (STM), which is one of the most powerful tools to study solid surface, has given the atomic-resolution images of the terraces and steps on the Si(001) vicinal surface. Around the S A step, the spectrum of the scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) exhibits a few characteristic peaks. This observation suggests that there exists an unique state at the step edge. In this review, I describe the atomic and electronic structure of the single steps on the Si(001) surface.
