“…10 Subsequently, it was shown that these features could be reproduced with the lobes aligned in directions not perpendicular to the scan direction, 11 and theoretical calculations suggested that the double lobe features might indeed be observable. 12 However, it should be noted that due to the computational constraints of the time these simulations involved a number of simplifications, including the use of very small tip-clusters and the fixing of the tips atoms during the calculation of the tip-sample forces. Later, more sophisticated calculations 13 performed without these limitations suggested that the original model put forward to explain the double lobe features was perhaps over-simplified, and, even if unphysically constrained, did not produce the "double lobe" features observed experimentally or observed in earlier simulations.…”
