Fig. 8

The simulated STM images of (a) pristine Si(111)-7×7 and (b) Si(111)-7×7 with Ag atoms in the corner hole. The Ag atoms in the CHs are indicated using arrows and can be recognized by the surrounding six top adatoms that belong to the six adjacent unit cells and those adatoms look bright (inset figure in (b)).
