%X Using molecular statistics simulations based on the embedded atom method potential, we investigate the reliability of the lateral manipulation of single Ptadatom on Pt(111) surface with a single-atom tip for different tip heights (tip-surface distance) and tip orientations. In the higher tip-height range, tip orientation has little influence on the reliability of the manipulation, and there is an optimal manipulation reliability in this range. In the lower tip-heightrange the reliability is sensitive to the tip orientation, suggesting that we can obtain a better manipulation reliability with a proper tip orientation. These results can also be extended to the lateral manipulation of Pd adatom on Pd(111) surface.
