First-Principle Prediction on STM Tip Manipulation of Ti Adatom on Two-Dimensional Monolayer YBr3
Figure 1
(a) The top view of crystal structures of monolayer YBr3. The double arrow indicates the pore size (5.29 Å) of monolayer YBr3. (b) The side view of W-tip manipulates the Ti atom on monolayer YBr3 surface. Theoretical simulation of STM images for (c) pristine YBr3, Ti atom on (d) Hcenter, (e) Ytop, and (f) Brtop site. Bright places denote the position of the Br and Ti atoms, and Y atoms are shown in the dark region. The Ti atomic positions are also outlined by red dashed circles.
