Indium-induced superstructures formed on Si(1 1 0) surfaces

Si(1 1 0) surfaces covered with small amounts of In deposit and then annealed at high temperature were investigated by RHEED, and two kinds of superstructures with A = 3a and B = −a + 4b, and A = 3a − 2b and B = −2a + 4b as primitive translational vectors are reported to form on the surfaces.
