Title: Order-Disorder Transition of Au and Pt (110) Surfaces: The Significance of Relaxations and Vibrations

We find that the missing-row structure of Au disorders at 570 K, in close agreement with the experimental value of 650 K. For Pt, we predict a transformation at 750 K. Relaxations and vibrations are found to be essential for the accurate calculation of the critical temperature.Read More
