Abstract:
The project described here is not only a beautiful example of the visual side tophysics, it is also a beautiful example of international cooperation. The first use of the idea—to apply a Fourier transform to STM pictures to see electron waves instead of just the surface atoms—came out of a collaboration between Plummer, Sprunger and the Aarhus group headed by Besenbacher. Hofman, who had beenworking at Tennessee, took Be(1010) samples to Berlin where the images shown in this pictorial were taken. All of the participants are now preparing a paper on the use of a Fourier transform to map the Fermi contour at metal surfaces.
