Beryllium, tungsten and their alloys Be2W and Be12W: Surface defect energetics from density functional theory calculations

The binding, adsorption and removal energies of atoms on the surfaces of Be with the major orientations (112¯0) and (112¯1), and of W and Be/W alloys with (110) and (111) orientations have been obtained from density functional theory calculations. An analysis of adatom formation on viable surfaces a...
