Unusual energy separation of subbands in Si(111) p-channels induced by In adsorption

We investigated the dispersion structure of the hole subbands in vicinal Si(111)4 ' 1-In surfaces directly by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. In this study, three inversion layers with different impurity concentrations and numbers of times of flash annealing (FA) were investigated....
