Am. Rodriguez et al., MULTILAYER RELAXATION AND SURFACE ENERGIES OF FCC AND BCC METALS USING EQUIVALENT CRYSTAL THEORY, Surface science, 289(1-2), 1993, pp. 100-126
The multilayer relaxation of fcc and bcc metal surfaces is calculated
using equivalent crystal theory. The results for changes in interplana
r spacings of planes close to the surface and the ensuing surface ener
gies are discussed in reference to other theoretical results and compa
red to available experimental data. The calculation includes high-inde
x surfaces for which no other theoretical results are known.
