Abstract
- The Bloch wave method has been widely used for interpreting reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) patterns and the consistency between the theory and high energy electron reflection (HEER) experiments has been claimed by different authors. The recent rigorous investigation on the consistency between the Bloch wave method and the multislice approach due to Cowley and Moodie in the reflection case for Au(001) surface has also provided a clear theoretical proof for the validity of the Bloch wave method in reflection case. However, a severe deviation of the Bloch wave solution for the Au(110) surface in the reflection case from the stabilized solution of its multislicing via the multislice iteration has recently revealed by the BMCR method (Bloch wave + Multislice Combined for Reflection).Fig.1 shows the results calculated for the Au(110) surface using the BMCR method. The incident angle is 30mRad and the absorption is included by taking the imaginary potential as 10% of the real potential in both the Bloch wave and multislice calculation.
