Abstract
The network structure of a silica bilayer film at a monolayer-bilayer transition and across a supporting metal step edge was studied at the atomic scale by scanning tunneling microscopy. The ring size distribution, ring-ring distances, and height profiles are analyzed across the step edge region. Density functional theory proposes two models to explain the observed network structure: a pinning of the lower layer to the substrate and a carpetlike mode. The results indicate a continuous coverage of the silica bilayer film across the step edge.
