One-dimensional 3d electronic bands of monatomic Cu chains.
The electronic structure of an array of monatomic Cu chains grown on the Pt(997) surface has been examined by angle-resolved photoemission. The monatomic wires exhibit properties associated with 3d electron confinement in one dimension. Along the wire direction, the 3d bands states display a dispersive character, with periodicity in reciprocal space defined by the wire array geometry. These observations are compared and analyzed with ab initio calculations based on the full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave method.
