First-principles calculations using density functional theory based on norm-conserving pseudopotentials have been performed to investigate the Cs adsorption on the Si(001) surface for 0.5 and 1 ML coverages. We found that the saturation…

Diffusion of Ga adatom at the As rich, low temperature c(4$\times$4) reconstructions of GaAs(001) surface is analyzed. We use known energy landscape for the motion of Ga adatom at two different $\alpha$ and $\beta$ surface phases to…
