摘要
Using the local-orbital density-functional molecular-dynamics method, we have studied the surface structure of the strain-stabilized zinc-blende monolayer anion-terminated CdS(100) surface. By analogy with the GaAs(100) surface, we have considered four structural models and found that the structure with a (Formula presented) unit cell, in which there are a two-dimer unit and a two-shifted-dimer unit, is the most favorable. These results can be understood in terms of physical properties associated with ionicity. © 1997 The American Physical Society.
