We have re-investigated the Cu(110)-(2 x 3)N adsorbate structure using
a fully-dynamical low energy electron diffraction (LEED) intensity an
alysis (ED-LEED), and confirm the pseudo-(100) structure model. The st
rong corrugation of the topmost substrate layers was found to decrease
monotonically in amplitude towards the bulk: 50% relative to the bulk
interlayer spacing for the topmost reconstructed pseudo-(100) layer,
11% for the second, 10% for the third and 6% for the fourth. The layer
separation oscillates periodically and approaches the bulk value betw
een layers four and five. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
