Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has been used to study the coverage dependence of the atomic geometry and electronic structure of ordered overlayers of aluminum on Si(111). STM results for the Si(111)-(3×3)Al, Si(111)-(7×7)Al, and Si(111)-(7×7)Al overlayers, at (1/3, (3/7, and 1 monolayer (ML) Al coverage, identify changes in the local Al bonding sites associated with the different surface symmetry and local Al coverage. A hitherto unreported (2×1) structure is also observed coexisting with both 3 × 3 and 7 × 7 structures. The results confirm a threefold adatom geometry for the 3× 3 surface, and reveal clusters of threefold Al adatoms adsorbed on twofold sites for the 7 × 7 surface and the substitution of Al for Si in the outer double layer for the (7×7)Al surface. The transition from semiconducting to metallic behavior is directly correlated with changes in the local bonding geometry as a function of coverage. © 1989 The American Physical Society.
