30. The LDOS is calculated at the Fermi energy and 5 Å above the surface which is close to the tip-substrate distance in STM experiments. The LDOS near the Co adatom (1.8 Å above the surface) exhibits the same oscillations with larger amplitudes.
31. We have also calculated the interaction energies between Cu atoms on Cu (111), and have found that at large distances they are very close to the interaction between Co adatoms. This result agrees with the conclusion of the experiment (Ref. 11), and shows the generality of surface-state mediated interactions between adsorbates.
32. One-dimensional structures have been observed by S.J. Koh and G. Ehrlich, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 106103 (2001).
33. Both the experiment and the calculation reveal that fcc sites are more stable than hcp sites.
