“…7 However, it has been pointed out that the shift of E ss can have different signs around edge dislocations. 8 From the maximal shift of E ss À E F from À65 meV (Ag single crystal) to þ30 meV we obtain a strain ¼ 0:8% from our DFT calculation (Fig. 3) in good agreement with the estimated thermal strain th ¼ 0:66%, Eq.…”

“…The surface state on Ag(111) has been observed frequently in photoemission and STS experiments with E ss À E F % À65 meV and an effective electron mass m à ¼ 0:4 m e (m e : electron mass). [15][16][17][18] A shift of the surface-state band toward higher energy was found for Ag(111) films on Si, 6,7 on Ag(111) close to surface steps, 8 and over buried interfaces. 18 It is attributed to the local change of the electronic band structure of the bulk and surface bands due to lattice strain.…”

“…The associated dipole oriented parallel to the surface was predicted to strongly affect adsorption of molecules. Recently, different types of steps on an Ag(111) surface were also shown by STS to affect the local electronic structure in markedly different ways, indicating that all steps are not equal [46].…”
