Preferred Label : low energy electron diffraction;
Detailed label : low energy electron diffraction (LEED);
IUPAC acronym : LEED;
IUPAC definition : Any technique which measures the angular intensity distribution of electrons reflected
from a crystalline surface under bombardment with low energy electrons (E0 500 eV)
in larger angles of incidence. The diffraction pattern also provides very surface
sensitive information on the atomic arrangement of the top layers of a solid.;
