Abstract
Experimental studies of thermally stimulated surface autosegregation (TSAS) processes on single crystals of binary and ternary (oxide) compounds and analysis of our and others’ results are used to assess the effect of the type of chemical bonding on surface segregation processes in chemical compounds. Parameters are proposed that relate the segregation tendency to characteristics of segregation processes. The surface segregation tendency is shown to become less pronounced with increasing bond ionicity.
