Abstract

Recent advances in the theory of low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) are reviewed. They primarily concern methods to handle the multiple scattering of electrons in an atomiclattice. These advances have allowed the structure determination by LEED of complex surface structures, including large-unit-cell overlayers of molecules, disordered and incommensurate overlayers, complex reconstructions and adsorbate-induced relaxations.
