Low-energy electron diffraction

Mitchell, K.A. R.·1973·Contemporary Physics

Abstract

This paper provides a brief introduction to the theory and practice of low-energy electron diffraction, a tcchnique which is proving useful for investigating the structure of surfaces. Emphasis is given to clean well-defined surfaces which are studied also with Auger electron spectroscopy and under conditions of ultra-high vacuum. Knowledge of surface structure is of fundamental and technological interest, and, although only two-dimensional periodicities in surface regions are obtained directly from diffraction patterns, even this has led to the discovery of unexpected structural arrangements. Recently there has been substantial progress in the understanding of diffracted beam intensities, and procedures are reviewed for extracting surface structures from measured intensities.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
