Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) reveals a hexagonal surface structure and a dislocation network upon Bi intercalation, which we attribute to a $\\sqrt{3}\\times\\sqrt{3}R30{\\deg}$ Bi structure on the underlying Ir(111) surface. Ab-initio calculations show that this Bi structure is the most energetically favorable, and also illustrate that STM measurements are most sensitive to C atoms in close proximity to intercalated Bi atoms.
