abstract = {We investigate the origin of scanning tunneling microscope
(STM) contrast in lateral Ge-Si nanostructures prepared on
the Si(111)-root 3x root 3-Bi surface [M. Kawamura, N. Paul,
V. Cherepanov, and B. Voigtlander, Phys. Rev. Lett. 91,
096102 (2003)]. At low sample bias, the voltage-dependent
apparent height difference between Si-and Ge-terminated
areas in STM images corresponds exceptionally well to the
difference in voltage-integrated scanning tunneling
spectroscopy (STS) curves measured in Si-and Ge-terminated
areas. The STS curves and the STM contrast reflect both
differences in local density of states and in tip-induced
effects in Si- and Ge-terminated areas. At higher bias
voltage, the tunneling into unoccupied states on
Ge-terminated areas is strongly influenced by lowering of
the local height of the tunneling barrier with respect to
Si. The lowering of the local tunneling barrier height
vanishes for the occupied states and can be traced back to
different tip-induced band bending on Si-and Ge-terminated
areas.},
