Abstract
The adsorption and growth of Xe layers on the Cu(111) surface were studied with a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope. Initially, Xe atoms preferentially adsorb at the step, revealing two different wetting behaviors at the upper and the lower step edges at the coverage of 0.2 monolayer when grown atKeywords
