Abstract

Triangulation from x-ray standing wave applied to three Bragg planes, together with symmetry considerations, have established the geometrical structure of epitaxial Bi overlayers on GaAs (110). Our results are consistent with the epitaxial continued layer structure model. Our analysis is based on prior experimental results that indicate two equally populated Bi sites.
