Controlling the surface chirality of Si(110)

Yamada, Yoichi; Girard, A.*; Asaoka, Hidehito ; Yamamoto, Hiroyuki; Shamoto, Shinichi

A widely well-defined homochiral surface is realized on Si(110), manipulating surface reconstruction by electromigration. Controlled switching of the surface handedness has also been demonstrated. In addition, by means of hydrogen passivation, the surface is sufficiently stabilized while surface chirality is conserved. These findings suggest the possible use of Si(110) as a heterogeneous catalyst for enantioselective chemical reactions.
