	~~In [[solid state physics]], a '''surface phonon''' is the [[quantum]] of a lattice vibration mode associated with a solid surface. Similar~~ to the ordinary lattice vibrations in a bulk solid (whose quanta are simply called [[phonon]]s), the nature of surface vibrations depends on details of periodicity and [[symmetry]] of a [[crystal structure]]. Surface vibrations are however distinct from the bulk vibrations, as they arise from the abrupt termination of a crystal structure at the surface of a solid. Knowledge of surface [[Phonon#Dispersion relation\|phonon dispersion]] gives important information related to the amount of surface relaxation, the existence and distance between an [[adsorbate]] and the surface, and information regarding presence, quantity, and type of defects existing on the surface.<~~ref name=Szeftel~~>~~J. Szeftel, "Surface phonon dispersion, using electron energy loss spectroscopy," ''Surface Science'', '''152/153''' (1985) 797-810, {{doi\|10.1016/0039-6028(85)90490-X}}</ref>~~

	~~In modern semiconductor research, surface vibrations are~~ of interest as they can couple with [[electron]]s and thereby affect the electrical and optical properties of semiconductor devices. They are most relevant for devices where the electronic active area is near a ~~surface, as is the case in [[two-dimensional electron system]]s and in [[quantum dot]]s. As a specific example, the decreasing size~~ of ~~[[CdSe]] quantum dots was found to result in increasing frequency of the surface vibration resonance, which can couple with electrons and affect their properties~~.<~~ref name=Hwang~~>~~Y.-N. Hwang and S.-H. Park, "Size-dependent surface phonon mode of CdSe quantum dots," ''Physical Review B'' '''59''', 7285-7288 (1999), {{doi\|10.1103/PhysRevB.59.7285}}</ref>~~

	Two methods are used for modeling surface phonons. One is the "slab method", which approaches the problem using lattice dynamics for a solid with parallel surfaces,<ref name=Kress>W. Kress and F. W. de Wette, "Study of surface phonons by the slab method," ''Surface Phonons'', Springer-Verlag, Berlin Heidelberg (1991)</ref> and the other is based on [[Green’s function]]s. Which of these approaches is employed is based upon what type of information is required from the computation. For broad surface phonon phenomena, the conventional lattice dynamics method can be used; for the study of lattice defects, resonances, or phonon state density, the Green’s function method yields more useful results.<ref name=Toennies>J. P. Toennies, "Experimental determination of surface phonons by helium atom and electron energy loss spectroscopy," ''Surface Phonons'', Springer-Verlag, Berlin Heidelberg (1991)</ref>

	~~==Quantum description==~~

	Surface phonons are represented by a [[wave vector]] along the surface, '''q''', and an energy corresponding to a particular vibrational mode frequency, ω. The surface [[Brillouin zone]] (SBZ) for phonons consists of two dimensions, rather than three for bulk. For example, the [[face centered cubic]] (100) surface is described by the directions ΓX and ΓM, referring to the [110] direction and [100] direction, respectively.<ref name=Kress/>

	The description of the atomic displacements by the harmonic approximation assumes that the force on an atom is a function of its displacement with respect to neighboring atoms, i.e. [[Hooke's law]] holds.<ref name=Bruesch>P. Brüesch, ''Phonons: Theory and Experiments I~~: Lattice Dynamics and Models of Interatomic Forces~~'', Springer-Verlag, Berlin Heidelberg (1982)</ref> Higher order anharmonicity terms can be accounted by using [[Perturbation theory\|perturbative methods]].<ref name=Morse>P. M. Morse, "Diatomic Molecules According to the Wave Mechanics. II. Vibrational Levels," ''Physical Review'' '''34''', 57 (1929), {{doi\|10.1103/PhysRev.34.57}}</ref>

	~~The positions are then given by the relation~~

	~~::<math> m_i </math> ü<sub>i,α</sub> = <math> - \sum _{j, \beta } \phi_{i \alpha , j \beta } u_{j, \beta } </math>~~

	~~where i is the place where the atom would sit if it were in equilibrium,~~ m~~<sub>i</sub> is the mass of the atom that should sit~~ at ~~i, α is the direction of its displacement, u<sub>i,α</sub> is the amount of displacement of the atom from i, and <math> \phi_{i \alpha,j \beta}~~ <~~/math~~> ~~are the force constants which come from the crystal potential.~~<~~ref name=Szeftel/~~>

	~~The solution to this gives the atomic displacement due to the phonon, which is given by~~

	::~~<math> u_{l,m, \kappa , \alpha} = \sqrt{(m_\kappa )} v_{l, \kappa , \alpha }~~ (~~\omega , q) e^{i~~[~~\omega t - q x (l,m)]} </math>~~

	where the atomic position i is described by l, m, and κ, which represent the specific atomic layer, l, the particular unit cell it is in, m, and the position of the atom with respect to its own unit cell, κ. The term x(l,m) is the position of the unit cell with respect to some chosen origin.<ref name=Szeftel/>

	~~==Normal modes of vibration and types of surfaces phonons==~~

	Phonons can be labeled by the manner in which the vibrations occur. If the vibration occurs lengthwise in the direction of the wave and involves contraction and relaxation of the lattice, the phonon is called a "longitudinal phonon". Alternatively, the atoms may vibrate side-to-side, perpendicular to wave propagation direction; this is known as a "transverse phonon”. In general, transverse vibrations tend to have smaller frequencies than longitudinal vibrations.<ref name=Bruesch/>

	The wavelength of the vibration also lends itself to a second label. "Acoustic" branch phonons have a wavelength of vibration that is much bigger than the atomic separation so that the wave travels in the same manner as a sound wave; "optical" phonons can be excited by optical radiation in the infrared wavelength or longer.<ref name=Bruesch/> Phonons take on both labels such that transverse acoustic and optical phonons are denoted TA and TO, respectively; likewise, longitudinal acoustic and optical phonons are denoted LA and LO.

	The type of surface phonon can be characterized by its dispersion in relation to the bulk phonon modes of the crystal. Surface phonon mode branches may occur in specific parts of the SBZ or encompass it entirely across.<ref name=Szeftel/> These modes can show up both in the bulk phonon dispersion bands as what is known as a resonance or outside these bands as a pure surface phonon mode.<ref name=Toennies/> Thus surface phonons can be purely surface existing vibrations, or simply the expression of bulk vibrations in the presence of a surface, known as a surface-excess property.<ref name=Kress/>

	A particular mode, the Rayleigh phonon mode, exists across the entire BZ and is known by special characteristics, including a linear frequency versus wave number relation near the SBZ center.<ref name=Szeftel/>

	~~==Experiment==~~

	~~Two of the more common methods for studying surface phonons are [[electron energy loss spectroscopy]] and [[helium atom scattering]].~~

	~~===Electron energy loss spectroscopy===~~

	The technique of [[electron energy loss spectroscopy]] (EELS) is based upon the fact that electron energy decreases upon interaction with matter. Since the interaction of low energy electrons is mainly in the surface, the loss is due to surface phonon scattering, which have an energy range of 10<sup>−3</sup> eV to 1 eV.<ref name=Oura>K. Oura, V. G. Lifshits, A. A. Saranin, A. V. Zotov and M. Katayama, ''Surface Science: An Introduction'', Springer-Verlag, Berlin Heidelberg (2003), http://~~www~~.~~springer~~.com/~~materials/surfaces+interfaces/book/978-3-540-00545-2</ref>~~

	In EELS, an electron of known energy is incident upon the crystal, a phonon of some wave number, '''q''', and frequency, ω, is then created, and the outgoing electron’s energy and wave number are measured.<ref name=Szeftel/> If the incident electron energy, E<sub>i</sub>, and wave number, k<sub>i</sub>, are chosen for the experiment and the scattered electron energy, E<sub>s</sub>, and wave number, k<sub>s</sub>, are known by measurement, as well as the angles with respect to the normal for the incident and scattered electrons, θ<sub>i</sub> and θ<sub>s</sub>, then values of q throughout the BZ can be obtained.~~<ref name=Szeftel/> Energy and momentum for the electron have the following relation,~~

	~~::<math> E = \frac { \hbar^2 k^2} {2m} </math>~~

	~~where m is the mass of an electron. Energy and momentum must be conserved, so the following relations must be true of the energy and momentum exchange throughout the encounter:~~

	~~::<math> \Delta E = \| E_i - E_s \| = \hbar \omega </math>~~

	~~::<math> \Delta K = k_i (sin \theta_i~~ ) ~~- k_s (sin \theta_s) = </math> '''G''' + '''q'''~~

	where '''G''' is a reciprocal lattice vector that ensures that '''q''' falls in the first BZ and the angles θ<sub>i</sub> and θ<sub>s</sub> are measured with respect to the normal to the surface.<ref name=Toennies/>

	The dispersion is often shown with '''q''' given in units of cm<sup>−1</sup>, in which 100 cm<sup>−1</sup> = 12.41 meV.<ref name="Oura" /> The electron incident angles for most EELS phonon study chambers can range from 135-θ<sub>s</sub> and 90-θ<sub>f</sub> for θ<sub>f</sub> ranging between 55-65°.<ref name=Toennies/>

	~~===Helium atom scattering===~~

	Helium is the best suited atom to be used for surface scattering techniques, as it has a low enough mass that multiple phonon scattering events are unlikely, and its closed valence electron shell makes it inert, unlikely to bond with the surface upon which it impinges. In particular, <sup>4</sup>He is used because this isotope allows for very precise velocity control, important for obtaining maximum resolution in the experiment.<ref name=Toennies/>

	There are two main techniques used for [[helium atom scattering]] studies. One is a so-called time-of-flight measurement which consists of sending pulses of He atoms at the crystal surface and then measuring the scattered atoms after the pulse. The He beam velocity ranges from 644–2037 m/s. The other involves measuring the momentum of the scattered He atoms by a [[LiF]] grating monochromator.<ref name=Toennies/>

	It is important to note that the He nozzle beam source used in many He scattering experiments poses some risk of error, as it adds components to the velocity distributions that can mimic phonon peaks; particularly in time-of-flight measurements, these peaks can look very much like inelastic phonon peaks. Thus, these false peaks have come to be known by the names "deceptons" or "phonions".<ref name=Toennies/>

	~~===Comparison of techniques===~~

	EELS and helium scattering techniques each have their own particular merits that warrant the use of either depending on the sample type, resolution desired, etc. Helium scattering has a higher resolution than EELS, with a resolution of 0.5-1 meV compared to 7 meV. However, He scattering is available only for energy differences, E<sub>i</sub>-E<sub>s</sub>, of less than about 30 meV, while EELS can be used for up to 500 meV.<ref name=Toennies/>

	During He scattering, the He atom does not actually penetrate into the material, being scattered only once at the surface; in EELS, the electron can go as deep as a few monolayers, scattering more than once during the course of the interaction.<ref name=Toennies/> Thus, the resulting data is easier to understand and analyze for He atom scattering than for EELS, since there are no multiple collisions to account for.

	He beams have a capabilities of delivering a beam of higher flux than electrons in EELS, but the detection of electrons is easier than the detection of He atoms. He scattering is also more sensitive to very low frequency vibrations, on the order of 1 meV.<ref name=Toennies/> This is the reason for its high resolution in comparison to EELS.
