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.

TL;DR: In this article, an experiment was performed to investigate several effects caused by correlated successive collisions of fast ions at crystalline surfaces, and predictions of simple models for ion scattering processes were examined qualitatively, and the obtained experimental data were discussed in the framework of these models.

Computer simulation of impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy data using hitting-probability integrals
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple model for calculating the flux distributions measured in impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy (ICISS) is described and illustrated, which is a straightforward modification of the hitting probability integral calculation introduced by Tromp and van der Veen for medium-energy ion scattering.

The use of low energy alkali ion scattering as a probe of surface structure
TL;DR: In this paper, an overview of the use of low energy ion scattering as a probe of surface structure with emphasis on work done using alkali ions is given, with examples of measurements of layer relaxations on the Mo (111) surface and missing row reconstructions on the Au (110 and Pt (110) surfaces.
