With use of a novel Monte Carlo method suited for the study of surface phenomena, the
authors have investigated a three-dimensional Ising model with modified surface exchange …

Epitaxial Gd (0001) has been investigated with spin-polarized low-energy-electron
diffraction and the magneto-optic Kerr effect. The ferromagnetic critical temperature of the …

Electronic materials and devices corrode in the same ways as automobiles, bridges, and
pipelines, but their typically small dimensions make them orders of magnitude more …

The main lines of surface magnetism research before and after 1975 are reported. The
overall changes of magnetic properties in surfaces and interfaces were investigated by a …

We present the results of extensive Monte Carlo simulations of phase transitions and critical
behavior at the surface of a simple cubic Ising model. Profiles of the magnetization and …

The massive field-theory approach for studying critical behavior in fixed space dimensions
d< 4 is extended to systems with surfaces. This enables one to study the surface critical …

It is demonstrated that spin dependences in the secondary-electron yields obtained when
electron-spin-polarized He (2 S 3) atoms are deexcited at a magnetized surface provide a …

In view of investigating for 3 d-and 4 f-ferromagnetic crystals the elastic scattering and the
emission of polarized low-energy electrons as well as the bulk electronic structure, a …

A review is given of surface magnetism. In particular the interplay of magnetization and
anisotropy at a surface is discussed, after a survey of experimental and theoretical results for …
