Abstract
The effects of the phonon structure of a Cu(100) surface on the elasticscattering probabilities are considered for D/sub 2/ and He at lowenergies and temperatures. The calculation is based on iteratively solving theSchroedinger equation for the scattering of a particle from a flat surface with the Born approximation for the self-energy as a nonlocal and energy-dependent optical potential. The phonon contribution to this self-energy has been evaluated by performing surface lattice dynamics of a semi-infinite Cu(100) crystal.
