Atomic Bonding and Electronic Binding Energy of Two-Dimensional Bi/Li(110) Heterojunctions via BOLS-BB Model.

Combining the bond-order-length-strength (BOLS) and atomic bonding and electronic model (BB model) with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we studied the atomic bonding and electronic binding energy behavior of Bi atoms adsorbed on the Li(110) surface. We found that the Bi atoms adsorbed on the Li(110) surface form two-dimensional (2D) geometric structures, including letter-, hexagon-, galaxy-, crown-, field-, and cobweb-shaped structures. Thus, we obtained the following quantitative information: (i) the field-shaped structure can be considered the bulk structure; (ii) the field-shaped structure of Bi atom formation has a 5d energy level of 22.
