TL;DR: In this article, automatic optimization procedures for low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) are discussed, which combine numerical search algorithms with efficient methods of determining the diffracted intensities for varying structures.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of CO on the benzene structure was investigated by diffuse LEED intensity analysis using an extension of the beam set neglect method, and the results showed that benzene was found to chemisorb in a two-fold bridge site rotated by 30° with respect to the site found for the ordered phase formed in the presence of coadsorbed CO.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecule-induced displacive reconstruction in a substrate surface: Ethylidyne adsorbed on Rh(111) studied by low-energy-electron diffraction
TL;DR: It is found for the first time that a molecule can induce a displacive reconstruction in the substrate on which it is adsorbed, which strengthens an earlier hypothesis that catalytic reactions are usually accompanied by distortions in the catalyst.
Journal Article
Molecule-Induced Displacive Reconstruction in a Substrate Surface: Ethylidyne Adsorbed on Rh(111), Studied by Low-Energy Electron Diffraction
TL;DR: In this paper, the first time that a molecule can induce a displacive reconstruction in the substrate on which it is adsorbed was observed in a refined structure determination of Rh(111) single-crystal surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural analysis of the β-SiC(100)-c(2×2) surface reconstruction by automated tensor low-energy electron diffraction
TL;DR: It is postulate that hydrogen, released by the thermal decomposition of C{sub 2}H{sub 4}, saturated silicon dangling bonds in the second atomic layer, suppressing dimer formation.
