Abstract

The theoretical methods currently in use for the calculation of surface phononsurface phonon dispersion curves and how they have evolved from the phenomenological force-constant models to the present day first principles theories are discussed. A selection of paradigmatic examples for the different classes of crystal surfaces is presented with comparisons to the experimental data obtained from helium atom scattering or electron energy-loss spectroscopy.
