Abstract

A precision determination of the number of dimer atoms on the Si(100)-(2×1) surface which contribute to the 2p core-level shift as measured by high-resolution photoemission is possible with an in situ comparison with Si(111)-(7×7). By correlating distinct features of the Si(111)-(7×7) spectrum with the known structural features of the (7×7) surface, the number of surface atoms which contribute to the Si(100)-(2×1) 2p core shift is 0.920.07 monolayers. Implications regarding the symmetry of the valence charge distribution about the dimers are addressed.
