Abstract
We have calculated the binding energy using the inserted atom method for divacancies for a large number of surfaces of aluminum, nickel, copper, palladium, silver, platinum, and gold, and also in the near-surface layers. A correlation was found between the binding energies at the high-index and low-index surfaces. The transition of the calculated quantities to bulk values was tracted while successively moving the defects into the depth of the near-surface layer of the material.
