摘要
We review our current understanding of the reversible phase transitions found in clean semiconductor and metal/semiconductor surfaces. The most important phase transitions are considered in detail, in particular those appearing in Si(001), Ge(001), Si(111), Ge(111), 3C-SiC(001), Pb and Sri on Si(111) and Ge(111), Au/Si(111) and Ag/Si(111). Special emphasis is placed on recent experiments and theoretical models, as well as on open or controversial aspects of these interesting surface systems.
