A Local View of Bonding and Diffusion at Metal Surfaces
[chapter]
1997
Surface Diffusion
Preserved Fulltext
First-principles density functional calculations and corresponding experimental results underline the importance of basic chemical concepts, such as coordination, valence saturation and promotion-hybridization energetics, in understanding bonding and difision of atoms at and on metal suqaces. Several examples are reviewed, including outer-layer relaxations of clean hcp(0001) surfaces, liquid-metal-embrittlement energetics, separation energies of metal-adatom dimers, concerted substitutional
