Abstract

A review of time-resolved reflection high-energy electron diffraction studies of approximately 100-ps laser heated surfaces is given. The dynamic structural behavior is shown to be strongly dependent on surface orientation and is different from that observed under slow heating conditions. Surface superheating and melting of single crystals of lead are described in addition to surface reconstruction of germanium.
