In the few years which have passed since its invention1 by Binnig, Rohrer, and coworkers, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has established itself as a remarkably powerful and versatile tool for studying surfaces. This paper reviews the present theoretical understanding of STM, with emphasis on the interpretation of atomic-resolution STM images. Some familiarity with the basic principles of STM is assumed here; the basic ideas and instrumentation have been described in detail elsewhere.1
