Sologub S. Modes of surface scattering of current carriers in metals and semimetals.

Dominance of diffraction mode of conduction electron scattering on surfaces W(100)-c(2 2)D, W(100)-(1 1)2D, Mo(110)-с(1?3)Tb and Mo(110)-HCP-Tb as well as Kondo-scattering on Tb adatoms adsorbed on the Mo(110) was found as a result of magnetotransport experiments. The role of surface electronic states for scattering on W, Mo(110)-(1 1)H, D surfaces was shown. Investigation of scattering of current carriers of Bi(111) nanofilm surface electronic states on Bi, Sb, Co, Fe, Tb and Cr adatoms demonsteted the model of local time-reversal symmetry breaking for scattering of carriers of spin-split surface electronic states on magnetic adatoms is oversimplistic. Results of investigations of W, Mo(100)-(1 1)H and Mo(110)-(2 2)2H atomic surface structure, unoccupied electronic states on the W(100) surface covered by Dy adatoms, growth of stepped epitaxial Bi nanofilm, and compensation methods for target bias potential during ion cleaning are presented too.
