Defects at Surfaces

Henzler, Martin

Abstract In solid state physics, two informations are most important for the description of the properties of a solid: the chemical composition and the atomic arrangement. The simplest solid is a single crystal out of one kind of atoms. Solid state physics therefore starts with the description of an ideal, that is,defect-free single crystal. Many properties may be described in this way. It is, however, necessary to proceed to real crystals by introducing more and more chemical and structural variations, since small variations may cause drastic changes, for example dislocations for mechanical strength of metals, impurities for the color of glass,or doping for the conductivity of semiconductors.
