Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is an experimental technique based on ... proportional to the integral of the density of states from Fermi level to eV, taking a numerical derivative yields DOS of ...

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy is a subset of Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM), a group of techniques that image and manipulate surfaces at the nanometer to atomic scales. SPM techniques share the ...

The paper provides a detailed explanation of how the profile of the light collected in a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) experiments changes when the tip is placed on an atomic step.
