Flat (001) surfaces of II-VI semiconductors: A lattice gas model
Abstract
We present a two-dimensional lattice gas with anisotropic interactions which model the known properties of the surface reconstructions of CdTe and ZnSe. In constrast to an earlier publication [12], the formation of anion dimers is considered. This alters the behaviour of the model considerably. We determine the phase diagram of this model by means of transfer matrix calculations and Monte Carlo simulations. We find qualitative agreement with the results of various experimental investigations.
