Method of calculating the electron-phonon scattering of surface electronic states on the (110) surface of noble metals

Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

A theoretical method of calculating the electron-phonon scattering of electron and hole excitations on the (110) surface of noble metals is described in detail. The method is based on a description of the electronic surface structure by two-dimensional model pseudopotential. As an example, the electron-phonon interaction parameters for the surface states and image potential states localized in the \( \bar{Y} \) -gap are calculated for the Pd(110) surface. The electron-phonon coupling parameter λ calculated in two surface states differs by several times owing to different localizations of the states. The parameter λ for the image potential states is rather small.
