A tabulation and classification of the structures of clean solid surfaces and of adsorbed atomic and molecular monolayers as determined from low energy electron diffraction patterns

A comparison between the oxidation of bulk lead and that of lead deposits on Au(111): An auger study

“…The more complex details observed by others [20] could not be resolved, which may be attributed to the limited quality of our analyzer. No clearly defined patterns for the lead films before or after oxidation could be identified although new but faint diffraction spots were observed after Pb deposition.…”

Charge-dependent atomic-scale structures of high-index and ( 110) gold electrode surfaces as revealed by scanning tunneling microscopy

“…The proximity of the Au(331) face, which can be designated equivalently as 3(111)-(111) or 2(111)-(110), invites the question of whether a related reconstruction can be obtained for this surface. Relatively little experimental information is available for (331) metal surfaces [24]. by monoatomic steps, the measured unit-cell distance perpendicular to the strings is 6.3 (± 0.3) A, close to the value (6.14 A) expected for the ideal bulktermination structure.…”

Step dynamics and step–step interactions on the chiral Cu(5 8 90) surface

“…Some of the experimental studies focused on the structure and stability of high-Miller-index surfaces during adsorption [5][6][7][8]; others investigated surface reconstructions [9][10][11][12][13] or surface relaxations [14]. The importance of high-Miller-index surfaces (or "vicinal" surfaces as they are frequently called) in surface science was acknowledged by introducing a special notation such that the structure of the denoted crystal planes could be recognized straight forwardly just by their notation (sometimes denoted as the "Somorjai notation") [15].…”
