Structure and electronic spectroscopy of steps on GaAs(110) surfaces
Steps on GaAs(110) surfaces, with step-normal vectors parallel to [001], are studied by scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. Two possible orientations of the steps occur, with outward normal vectors of [001] or [ 00 - 1 ], which in simple bulk-terminated form have Ga (cations) or As (anio...

The latter type of step in n-type or undoped material is found to retain its bulk-terminated form. A band of states is observed extending out from the valence band, associated with the dangling bonds of the terminating As atoms.
