Abstract: A study of the surface structure and electronic properties of (010) KGd 0.95 Nd 0.05 (WO 4 ) 2 (Nd:KGW) using RHEED analysis and XPS is presented. It is shown that Nd doping has a negligible effect on the core levels of the basic elements. A bombardment of the Nd:KGW crystal with 3-keV Ar ions results in surface amorphization accompanied by the generation of tungsten ions in lower valence states.
