Subject: CaO versus MgO...


Dear All,

I have found a lot of studies about several properties of MgO surfaces. Similar
work on CaO surfaces seems to me to be scarce. Is there any special reason why
MgO surface physics should be much more interesting than CaO (or other similar
oxides) surfaces? Put it in another way, does anyone of you know if there are
important differences between the surface properties of the alkaline earth oxides?

Thanks a lot in advance, and best regards from Spain!

Andres Aguado.
