Abstract

Low-energy positron diffraction (LEPD) is used in conjunction with low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) to determine the relaxed atomic geometries of the CdSe cleavage surfaces. The LEPD analyses yield optimal fits at smaller top-layer perpendicular relaxations than LEED for both cleavage faces, and significantly better agreement between theoretical and experimental intensity profiles.
