Surface and image-potential states on MgB2 (0001) surfaces

We present self-consistent pseudopotential calculations of surface and image-potential states on MgB2(0001) for both B-terminated (B−t) and Mg-terminated (Mg−t) surfaces. We find a variety of very clear surface and subsurface states as well as resonance image-potential states n=1,2 on both surfaces....

Sumario:We present self-consistent pseudopotential calculations of surface and image-potential states on MgB2(0001) for both B-terminated (B−t) and Mg-terminated (Mg−t) surfaces. We find a variety of very clear surface and subsurface states as well as resonance image-potential states n=1,2 on both surfaces. The surface layer density of states (DOS) at EF is increased by 55% at the B−t and by 90% at the Mg−t surface compared to DOS in the corresponding bulk layers.
