Surface composition analysis by low-energy ion scattering
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of surface composition analysis by low-energy ion scattering (LEIS) is presented, where the authors summarize the present understanding of the factors that determine the ion fraction of the scattered particles in LEIS, i.e. charge exchange processes.

STM study of the geometric and electronic structure of ZnO(0001)-Zn, (0001̄)-O, (101̄0), and (112̄0) surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, structural models for the different surfaces of ZnO surfaces are proposed and related to the stability and reactivity of the surfaces, based on these results, structural models are proposed.

Collisions of atoms and ions with surfaces under grazing incidence
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed discussion of the scattering of fast atoms and ions from solid surfaces under a grazing angle of incidence is presented Theoretical and experimental results are used to demonstrate that collisions employing this scattering geometry provide interesting new phenomena and insights into atom-surface interactions.

Adsorbate structure determination on surfaces using photoelectron diffraction
TL;DR: A review of the background physics of the process and the development of the technique is described in this article, and a brief discussion of the high energy forward scattering version of the X-ray photoelectron diffraction-XPD is included, but the most of the review is concerned with the lower energy backscattering method more relevant to the determination of detailed adsorption sites on surfaces.

Charge exchange and energy loss of particles interacting with surfaces
TL;DR: Experiments on energy dissipation of He-particles interacting with metal surfaces have been performed and particles were scattered off a Ni(110) surface and detected under specular reflection condition with a time-of-flight system.

Inelastic processes in ion scattering spectroscopy of solid surfaces
TL;DR: In this paper, three inelastic effects are discussed on the basis of experimental results in the low energy region of ion scattering spectroscopy of solid surfaces: the target atom is actually not free but bound to surrounding atoms at the surfaces, the target ion may be excited electronically, and electron exchange between the projectile ion and the surface may occur.

Scattering of Li+ from LEED characterized W(110) and Si (111) surfaces at energies between 2 and 20 eV
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of adsorbed atoms and molecules on the scattering behavior of Li+ ions on the W surface has been investigated and the results from the clean surfaces indicate that sufficiently precise measurements of the energy spectra of the scattered particles can yield very detailed information about the form of the interaction potential.
