In recent decades surface science has experienced a large growth in
connection with the development of various experimental techniques
which are able to characterize solid surfaces through the
observation of the scattering of ions, electrons, photons or atoms.
These methods of investigation, known under different labels such
as LEED, AES, XPS, UPS, etc. have been extensively applied in
describing the structure, morphology, and chemical and physical
properties of crystal surfaces and interfaces of a large variety of
materials of interest in solid-state physics, electronics,
metallurgy, biophysics, and heterogeneous catalysis. Among these
methods we wish to emphasize molecular beam scattering from solid
surfaces. ~lolecular beam scattering has gone through a large
development in the last ten years. In this decade a large number of
laboratories have used this method to study various clean and
adsorbate-covered surfaces. The technique is nonetheless quite old.
It dates back to the beginning of the thirties, when Estermann and
Stern performed the first atom diffraction experiment proving the
wave nature of atoms. In the following years the entire subject of
gas-surface interaction was considered a branch of rarefied gas
dynamics and developed in connection with aerospace research.
Attention was then given to the integral properties of gas-solid
interactions (sticking and energy accomodation, mean momentum
transfer) rather than to atom-surface scatter ing from
well-characterized surfaces.
