41. Theoretical studies suggest that sulfur atoms should be imaged as a protrusion on metal surfaces [Lang, N. D. Phys. Rev. Lett. 1986, 56, 1164]. Also, both experimental and theoretical investigations have shown that sulfur atoms are imaged as bright features on Ni(100) surfaces [Partridge, A.; Tatlock, G. J.; Leibsle, F. M.; Flipse, C. F. J.; Hörmandinger, G.; Pendry, J. B. Phys. Rev. B 1993, 48, 8267].
