Abstract
The clean and hydrogenated Ge(113) surface was investigated using refl ectance anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS). Surface-induced optical transit ions related to the 3 x 2 reconstruction of the clean surface were ide ntified. Two of these transitions are quenched when hydrogen adsorptio n changes the reconstruction. With increasing temperature, the optical transitions observed in the RAS spectra are shifted. At temperatures above 1000 K the RAS signal drops in intensity due to surface melting.
