nanoribbons is observed in STM. In this work, the Ribbons I and Ribbons II phases, with coverages of 1ML and 1.24ML, are examined in detail. As the coverage increases, the alloy component decreases in the XPS [...] stochastically on the surface, which is reflected in the LEED pattern as a spot splitting along the [1-10] direction. This splitting is directly linked to the ratio of narrow to wide ribbons. For the Ribbons …
