    Low Temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy Study at the α-Sn/Ge(111) Surface
    Japanese Journal of Applied Physics (2006)
    F. RonciStefano ColonnaStephen D. ThorpeA. CricentiG. Le Lay
    A scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) study of the α-Sn/Ge(111) at low temperature is presented. The scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) measurements of the surface evidenced a metallic character from the room temperature down to the 3×3 transition temperature. The fluctuation model for the √3×√3 reconstruction is confirmed by dynamical measurements of the tunneling current on top the Sn adatoms. The STM tip was used as a probe to verify the presence of oscillating Sn adatoms by studying the tunneling current as a function of time.

    A low temperature, ultrahigh vacuum, microwave-frequency-compatible scanning tunneling microscope
    Review of Scientific Instruments (1994)
    Stephan J. StranickM. M. KamnaPaul S. Weiss
    To expand the capabilities of the microwave frequency alternating current scanning tunneling microscope to include the ability to study isolated adsorbates and highly reactive surfaces, we have developed a low temperature, ultrahigh vacuum alternating current scanning tunneling microscope. In this alternating current scanning tunneling microscope, we employ the reliable beetle-style sample approach mechanism with a number of other components unique to a low temperature scanning tunneling microscope. These include the sample transfer, delivery, retrieval, storage, sputtering, and heating systems. This alternating current scanning tunneling microscope operates at 77 and 4 K.

    Electrochemical preparation of cobalt tips for scanning tunneling microscopy
    Review of Scientific Instruments (2002)
    Cristiano AlbonettiI. BergentiMassimiliano CavalliniValentin DediuMassimiliano Massi
    Here we describe a straightforward electrochemical method for fabricating sharp cobalt tips. Such tips are particularly useful for those scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) experiments where the focus is on magnetic properties of the surface and the spin polarized (SP) tunneling current is the relevant property, such as in SPSTM and SP scanning tunneling spectroscopy.

    Controlled Manipulation of Single Atoms and Small Molecules Using the Scanning Tunneling Microscope
    Karina MorgensternNicolás LorenteKarl–Heinz Rieder
    This article reviews the manipulation of single molecules by scanning tunneling microscopes, in particular, vertical manipulation, lateral manipulation, and inelastic electron tunneling manipulation. For a better understanding of these processes, we shortly review imaging by scanning tunneling microscopy as a prerequisite to detect the manipulated species and verify the result of the manipulation and scanning tunneling spectroscopy and inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy, which is used to chemically identify the molecules before and after the manipulation that employs the tunneling current.
