Abstract

The vacancy formation energy is calculated using the inserted atom method for faces with high and low indices and in the near-surface atomic layers of aluminum, nickel, copper, palladium, silver, platinum, and gold. The transition of the calculated quantities to the bulk quantities is traced for successive insertion of a defect deeper into the near-surface layer of the material. The relaxation contribution to the energetics is revealed for each type of surface. A correlation is seen between the energies of formation at surfaces with high and low indices.
