CONCLUSION (to be modified) 4 2 unit cells are out of phase across the row upon the polarity reversal(consistent with the previous 1st principle DFT calculation) No zig-zag patterns are observed at filled states(inconsistent with previous 1st principle DFT calculations) Weak longitudinal interchain correlation of 4X2 unit cells between the rows is found (consistent with previous RHEED results) Easily delocalized one dimensional empty states of 4X2 unit cells alongthe row is found (extended empty states) ‘8’ 2 unit cells are clearly visible at filled states Thus ‘8 ’ periodicity may not be originated from the out of phase of 4X2 units across the rows (consistent with previous RHEED results) There are some long-range interactions across the rows Additional In deposition at LT shows no change of 4X2 periodicity(contrast to the previous STM Results)
