23. Extra care must be exercised in interpreting results and compared with experiment since this quadratic term depends on the choice of unit cell.
24. Results has been checked with 13 layer slabs, and are essentially the same.
25. The term “physical monolayer” has been used in the experimental literature (see Ref. 4) to refer to an overlayer coverage that shadows all the substrate atoms in a ball-and-stick model. The number of geometric layers corresponding to a “physical monolayer” varies with orientation, and is typically one for closed packed surface such as (110) for a bcc substrate. A physical monolayer contains more than one geometric monolayer for higher index orientations.

32. We note that there is no unique way of determining the charge transfer within the LDA formalism. Another possibility is to move the dividing plane until the charge transfer found is a maximum. The charge transfer defined this way is numerically different from the values shown in Table I, but all qualitative results remain the same.
