Surface crystallography started in the late 1960s, with the simplest possible structures being solved by LEED [14]. Such structures were the clean Ni (111), Cu(l 11) and Al(l 11) surfaces, which are unreconstructed and essentially unrelaxed, i.e. very close to the ideal temrination of the bulk shown in figure B 1.211 a) typically, only one unknown structural parameter was fitted to experiment, namely the spacing between the two outennost atomic layers.

Surface crystallography is simply the two-dimensional analogue of bulk crystallography, in which we consider the structure of the different planes on which the atoms in the three-dimensional crystal reside. We limit ourselves to the most often encoun-... 

A special notation is used to describe surface reconstructions and surface overlayers and is described in books on surface crystallography (Clarke, 1985). The lattice vectors a and b of an overlayer are described in terms of the substrate lattice vectors a and b. If the lengths la I = mlal and Ib l = nibl, the overlayer is described as mXn. Thus, a commensurate layer in register with the underlying atoms is described as 1 X 1. The notation gives the dimension of the two-dimensional unit cell in terms of the dimensions of an ideally truncated surface unit cell.

The MOR is a surface-sensitive reaction [Clavilier et al., 1981a]. The influence of surface crystallography on the partitioning between the direct and the indirect pathways was investigated by Housmans and co-workers using electrochemistry, mass spectrometry, and modeling [Housmans et al., 2006 Housmans and Koper, 2003].

Many such techniques have been developed and used. Low-Energy Electron Diffraction, in which electrons are elastically scattered off a surface, has been the most successful among those for surface crystallography. Inelastically scattered electrons also... 

The computational effort is larger in ARUPS than in LEED, since more physical processes are involved, so that for the limited purpose of surface crystallography LEED seems more appropriate. Furthermore, ARUPS is best done with synchrotron radiation, which limits its availability.
