摘要
In a variety of casts the vacancy-adatom pair is shown to be the most widely spread defect on low-index surfaces due to its considerable contribution to the entropy of adatom positions. The results of calculations obtained by the modified embedded-atom and the embedded-atom methods show that the formation energy of the vacancy-adatom pair is slightly less than (or equal to) that of the vacancy for the majority of cases considered.
