TL;DR: In this paper, low energy ion scattering (LEIS) was used to investigate a clean Cu(110) surface and its reconstruction upon adsorption of half a monolayer of O atoms, and the main conclusions are as follows: (i) the distance between first and second layer atoms of the clean (110)-surface is 0.04 A smaller than the corresponding distance in the bulk, (ii) in the Cu(2 × 1)-O surface the oxygen atom is positioned in the long bridge position in the [001] surface row, 0.1 A

TL;DR: In this article, temperature-dependent polar angular spectra of 4.6 keV neon ions scattered by an Au(110) surface are measured and analyzed by means of a three-particle model with which the scattering cross section is calculated as a function of the angle of incidence.

TL;DR: In this article, the concentration of platinum in the top surface layer has been determined from the measurements of the ion intensity as a function of the sputtering time and from comparison of the scattered ion intensity with calibration measurements on pure Ni(110).

TL;DR: In this paper, the structure of Ir(110, Pt(110), and Au(110) surfaces changes as a function of temperature by reconstruction, and the surface blocking mode is a very convenient real-space method to obtain information on the surface periodicity.

TL;DR: In this article, the surface Debye temperature of a single crystal and the nearest neighbor correlation coefficient from polar angular ion spectra measured at room temperature were estimated using a three-particle model.
