Crystal-face dependence of surface melting

Ion-shadowing and -blocking experiments on a cylindrical single crystal of Pb reveal a strongly orientation-dependent disordering (melting) of the surface with increasing temperature. The thickness of the disordered surface layer is found to diverge logarithmically as the bulk melting point is appro...
