Abstract

The Green function method and the tight-binding approximation are employed to study the indirect interaction between two adatoms. Overlayer structures of hydrogen, oxygen and haloid adsorbed on contaminated nickel substrates are explained. The impurity effects are described by the Koster-Slater model. It is found that the introduction of impurity atoms can even change the overlayer structures.
