Abstract
We present a study of the phonon modes for the symmetric and asymmetric dimer models of the Si(001)(2 × 1) surface calculated within the adiabatic bond-charge model. The structural models used in this work were obtained from ab initio pseudopotential total energy calculations, which favour the asymmetric dimer configuration, in line with recent theoretical consensus.
