Abstract
The discovery of a "two-layer" behavior of the surface resulting from the concomitant action of sputtering and annealing at high temperatures is reported. As a result the intensity of thermal He beams scattered from a surface under ion bombardment exhibits pronounced oscillations. The use of this new feature for the measurement of sputtering yields of virgin surfaces is proposed.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
