Abstract
An accurate and fast dynamical theory for calculating reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) rocking-curve intensities at 10-40 keV is presented. The application of RHEED to surface structural analysis is demonstrated for the first time on a reconstructed surface by comparing data to calculated spectra for GaAs(110). The technique is highly sensitive to structural changes along specific directions due to its forward-scattering geometry.
