Abstract

The structure of the Au segregated Ni(110)-0.8%Au surface has been studied by scanning tunneling microscopy. The segregated Au layer forms a (7×4) structure with a c(2×4) subunit. At various coverages of Au overlayer, commensurate and incommensurate Au structures were observed. At a coverage of I monolayer, islands and facets assciated with incommensurate Au atoms were observed.
