Surface structural determination of UO2(111) using MeV ions

Description

The UO2(111) surface was studied using MeV ions incident along the <111> and <110> directions. In addition, this surface was well characterized by LEED and Auger analysis. A resonance at 3.05 MeV for 4He elastic scattering from 16O made it possible to study the surface peaks for uranium and oxygen simultaneously. By combining previous surface studies with detailed analysis of the surface peaks and rocking curves for this compound material, an outward relaxation of (0.19+-0.01) A was determined for uranium.
