摘要
A study was performed on (2 × 1)-(1 × 1) phase transition on Ge(001). The physical origin of this transition was the thermally excited breakup of dimers. It was shown that the dimer breakup promoted irreversible surface roughening above 1130 K and reversible surface disorder by step proliferation.
