Basic Theory of Surface States

by Maria Steslicka and Sydney G. Davison

The theory of surface states underlies our knowledge of the behavior of electrons at solid surfaces, which is of paramount importance in understanding the mechanisms by which solid-state devices operate and catalytic reactions proceed.
