Atomic structure of Cu{0 0 1}c(2 × 2)-Cl

A LEED intensity analysis of Cu{0 0 1}c(2 × 2)-Cl has given an excellent fit of theory to experiment with Cl in the fourfold symmetrical hollows in a simple overlayer structure with a Cu-Cl bond length of 2.38 Å. This structure is consistent with an analysis of angle-resolved photoemission measurements made in the same experiments and published elsewhere. These results help confirm the LEED analysis of the analogous system Ag{0 0 1}c(2 × 2)-Cl which gave the same structure, but had been rejected by an independent photoemission analysis. © 1982.
