Abstract

The thermal behavior of Pb{1 1 1} was studied using low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) in the temperature range 11-323 K. The surface interlayer spacings increase with temperature at about the same rate as the bulk up to 0.5 T_m, and then increase faster. The relaxation of the surface, which is larger than for other fcc {1 1 1} surfaces, is maintained in the temperature range studied. Although Pb has a larger expansion coefficient than other metals, the surface thermal expansion behavior is in line with other surfaces, and is consistent with harmonic interplanar potentials.
