摘要:

锑的表面的特征在于存在的自旋分裂状态内的投影体带隙和费米轮廓,因此预计将表现出自旋纹理。用自旋分辨的密度泛函理论计算了Sb(110)表面能带的自旋极化。非常规自旋织构的存在被证实的电子散射在这个表面上的调查。通过扫描隧道显微镜成像的单个散射杂质周围形成的电荷干涉图案揭示了直接背散射信号的存在。我们确定了允许的散射矢量和分析其偏差的演变关系的表面状态色散。

英文摘要:

The surfaces of antimony are characterized by the presence of spin-split states within the projected bulk band gap and the Fermi contour is thus expected to exhibit a spin texture. Using spin-resolved density functional theory calculations, we determine the spin polarization of the surface bands of Sb(110). The existence of the unconventional spin texture is corroborated by the investigations of the electron scattering on this surface. The charge interference patterns formed around single scattering impurities, imaged by scanning tunneling microscopy, reveal the absence of direct backscattering signal. We identify the allowed scattering vectors and analyze their bias evolution in relation to the surface-state dispersion.
