Electronic structure of lanthanide silicides grown on Si(111) and Si(001) — •S. Vandré, C. Preinesberger, T. Kalka, and M. Dähne-Prietsch — Institut für Festkörperphysik, Technische Universität Berlin, Hardenbergstraße 36, D-10623 Berlin, Germany

Epitaxial lanthanide (Ln) silicides on Si(111) are of considerable interest both for scientific research and device applications because of their structural perfection and their extremely low Schottky-barrier heights [1,2]. In our high-resolution core-level photoemission study on Gd, Dy, Er, and Lu silicides on Si(111), different lattice sites of the silicide layers can be assigned to the observed spectral components. In addition, a flat-band situation is observed for the first time for silicide monolayers on n-Si(111). In contrast to these two-dimensional layers on Si(111), a variety of low-dimensional structures is observed for Dy on Si(001) [3]. They result in several spectral components, related to variations in charge transfer at the respective lattice sites.
