The In(4× 1)/Si(111) reconstruction is used as a prototype for the understanding of 1D systems of atomic chains. It shows strong anisotropic transport properties and a temperature driven metal-insulator transition. Although being intensively studied for more than one decade the effect of defects induced by adsorption (e.g. O2, H2) are still under current debate. A better understanding of the influence of defects and a correlation with transport measurements can be achieved by a spatial constriction of the electron path. This restriction was realized by optical ex-situ lithography with reactive ion etching. We report a systematic investigation of the confinement effects using a 4-tip STM/SEM system. Moreover, O2 adsorption dependent transport studies show not only a reduction of conductivity along the direction of atomic chains but also a decrease in the perpendicular. This was not reported before and reveals an effective interwire coupling between the chains, which is in agreement with recent DFT calculations.
