The electronic structure of galena and hematite surfaces: applications to the interpretations of STM images, XPS spectra and heterogeneous surface reactions

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) images and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) spectra of galena (PbS) and hematite (a-Fe203) were calculated using ab-initio methods in order to interpret experimental images and spectra that were taken in previous studies. These calculations have helped to u...
