Abstract

From a comparative study using scanning tunneling microscopy, high-resolution lowenergy electron diffraction, and reflectance difference spectroscopy, we investigate the optical anisotropy on clean and H-covered Si(001) surfaces. We demonstrate a high sensitivity of reflectance difference spectroscopy to the surface tructural anisotropy and surface chemistry.
