Figures needed to illustrate the examples edit

Would be nice to have a picture qualitatively illustrating the unit cell of the reconstructed surface, its orientation w.r.t. unreconstructed surface layer, and atomic shifts (if any dimerization occurs). The notations like 2x1 are quite cryptic, since it is not clear what the chosen units/axes are (esp. for 111 surfaces). This would be particularly useful for the Si section where no illustration is given at all! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.104.156.31 (talk) 18:31, 16 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Technical edit

The first example (silicon) is quite technical with jargon. Fun to read, but still. 178.38.90.114 (talk) 06:51, 6 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
