Monte Carlo study of linear chain submonolayer structures.Application to Li/W(112)

The lattice gas model for adsorption of alkaline elements on W(112) surface is studied by Monte Carlo simulations. The model includes dipole--dipole interaction as well as long-range indirect interaction. The numerical results show that truncation of the indirect interaction even at 200$Å$ may change a phase diagram, i.e., new phases containing domain walls might occur. It is demonstrated that a defected phase can exist at high temperatures even if it is not stable at T=0. The phase diagram for Li/W(112) is constructed and long periodic chain structures (9*1), (6*1), (4*1), (3*1), and (2*1) are found to be stable at low temperatures. Role of thermal fluctuation is discussed by comparison of Monte Carlo results with mean field approximation results.

SOS model of overlayer induced faceting

A solid-on-solid model is proposed to describe faceting of bcc(111) metal surface induced by a metal overlayer. It is shown that the first order phase transition occurs between faceted {211} or {110} and disordered phases. The ordered phases consist of large 3-sided pyramids with {211} facets or {110} facets. It is shown that the high-temperature disordered phase has not planar bcc(111) structure but faceted disordered structure. Hysteresis effects were observed when the system was warmed above the transition temperature and then cooled down. Temperature dependence of LEED patterns for faceted and disordered phase are calculated in kinematic approximation.

Ground states of a one-dimensional lattice-gas model with an infinite range nonconvex interaction. A numerical study

We consider a lattice-gas model with an infinite range pairwise noncovex interaction. It might be relevant, for example, for adsorption of alkaline elements on W(112) and Mo(112). We study a competition between the effective dipole-dipole and indirect interactions. The resulting ground state phase diagrams are analysed (numerically) in detail. We have found that for some model parameters the phase diagrams contain a region dominated by several phases only with periods up to nine lattice constants. The remaining phase diagrams reveal a complex structure of usually long periodic phases. We also discuss a possible role of surace states in phase transitions.

A model of linear chain submonolayer structures. Application to Li/W(112) and Li/Mo(112)

We propose a lattice gas model to account for linear chain structures adsorbed on (112) faces of W and Mo. The model includes a dipole-dipole interaction as well as a long-ranged indirect interaction. We have explicitly demonstrated that the periodic ground states depend on a competition between dipole-dipole and indirect interaction. The effect of temperature is studied within the molecular-field approximation. The numerical results show that for dipole-dipole interaction only, all long periodic linear chain phases are suppressed to low temperatures. However, when the long-range indirect interaction becomes important, the long-periodic linear chain phases start to fill up the phase diagram and develop a high thermal stability. Model parameters are chosen to reconstruct a sequence of long-periodic phases as observed experimentally for Li/Mo(112) and Li/W(112).
