Abstract

We prove, by realistic microscopic calculations within the sp(3)s(*) tight-binding method for GaAs(110) and GaAs(100), that the surface optical properties are not influenced by long-range crystal termination effects, and hence that they can be consistently studied considering slabs of limited thickness (20-30 Angstrom). The origin of derivative like and bulklike line shapes in reflection anisotropy spectra is also discussed, analyzing the effects arising from possible surface-induced reduction, broadening, and shifting of the bulk spectrum near the surface.
