Surface Relaxation Kinetics

Surface Relaxation Kinetics is a theoretical framework in surface science that describes the time-dependent atomic rearrangements at solid surfaces following perturbation, distinguished from related kinetic processes by its specific focus on the relaxation of surface atoms toward thermodynamic equilibrium after disruption of their initial ordered configuration.
