Abstract

Observations of the Bi–O surface of superconductive Bi2212 single crystals were carried out using an ultrahigh-vacuum scanning tunneling microscope (UHV-STM). In the atomic resolution images, surface corrugations, which correspond to the superstructure of the Bi–O surface in addition to Bi atom deficiencies, were observed. There were hollow lines along the ridges of the corrugations, which may be due to missing atom rows.
