Formation of Surface and Quantum-Well States in Ultra Thin Pt Films on the Au(111) Surface

The electronic structure of the Pt/Au(111) heterostructures with a number of Pt monolayers n ranging from one to three is studied in the density-functional-theory framework. The calculations demonstrate that the deposition of the Pt atomic thin films on gold substrate results in strong modifications...
