Simple metal under tensile stress: layer-dependent herringbone reconstruction of thin potassium films on graphite

While understanding the properties of materials under stress is fundamentally important, designing experiments to probe the effects of large tensile stress is difficult. Here tensile stress is created in thin films of potassium (up to 4 atomic layers) by epitaxial growth on a rigid support, graphite...
