Abstract

Using a realistic tight-binding Hamiltonian we have calculated the effective cluster interactions that describe the ordering of adsorbed Ir atoms on theIr(111)surface. We have determined the relative stability of adatoms in "bulk" and "surface" sites and also mapped out the barrier between them. This information is then used as input in Monte Carlo simulations which allow us to determine typical diffusion behavior at various temperatures.
