The two-dimensional surface electronic band structure of H:GaAs(110) i
s studied by angular resolved ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy a
long the XBAR'-MBAR and XBAR-MBAR symmetry lines and in the high symme
try points of the surface Brillouin zone. Three surface state bands ar
e resolved in the first 5 eV below the upper valence band edge. A comp
arison with theoretical band structure calculations yields a satisfact
ory agreement, giving evidence of hydrogen induced GaAs(110) surface d
erelaxation. The clean GaAs(110) surface electronic band structure is
studied comparing results with available theoretical and experimental
data.
