25. As compared to the C and H site adsorptions, the B site adsorption is not energetically most favorable. However, the energetics change upon coadsorption with the T site.
26. According to Pauling’s scale, Te is more electronegative than Si (i.e., (formula presented) and (formula presented). Therefore, one expects that charge is transferred from Si to Te. This is consistent with the atomic configurations and occupancies (formula presented) and (formula presented).

29. We recognize that high-order reconstructions cannot be revealed by using a (4×1) supercell. For the Te covered Si(001) no high- order reconstructions have been reported at Θ∼1.

31. Recently, it has been shown that strong anharmonicity of phonons and nonlinear electron-phonon coupling are responsible for superconductivity in (formula presented) crystals: T. Yildirim, Phys. Rev. Lett.87, 037001 (2001).
