The original version of this Article contained errors in the Results and discussion section.

“Wurde et al.⁵ predicted that there two surface resonance (SR) states near TBBE and BBBE at ${\overline{\text{M}}}_{Pb\left(111\right)}$ [S1 and S2 of Fig. 3 in Ref. 5].”

now reads:

“Wurde et al.⁵ predicted that there are two surface resonance (SR) states near BBBE and TBBE at ${\overline{\text{M}}}_{Pb\left(111\right)}$ [S1 and S2 of Fig. 3 in Ref. 5].”

Additionally,

“However, their surface weights are not as large as those of S₂ and S₃ so the intensity of the extra band is substantially lower than them in Fig. 3c.”

now reads:

“However, their surface weights are not as large as those of S₂ and S₃ so the intensity of the extra band is substantially lower than them in Fig. 3d.”

And,

“The blue dashed-dot curves in Fig. 3c, d represent the calculated SR bands of Pb(111), extracted from Fig. 3 of Ref. 5 in two symmetry directions.”

now reads:

“The blue dashed-dot curves in Fig. 3d, f represent the calculated SR bands of Pb(111), extracted from Fig. 3 of Ref. 5 in two symmetry directions.”

Finally,

“Figure 6 shows the calculated charge distribution of S₁ state at $M_{3\times 3}^1\left(M_{Pb\left(111\right)}\right)$ in the Au and six Pb layers below, for the three cases.”

now reads:

“Figure 6 shows the calculated charge distribution of S₁ state at $M_{3\times 3}^1\left(M_{Pb\left(111\right)}\right)$ in the Au, Cu, Ag and six Pb layers below, for the three cases.”
