28. In Sec. 3, we discuss the surface electronic structures of Ni surfaces in terms of orbital components of Ni bands, and it must be noted that the index for the orbital is defined differently for each surface. As for the relationship for the d -orbital indices between the (001) and (111) faces, see, for example, K. Terakura, T. Oguchi, A. R. Williams, and J. Kübler, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.30.4734 30, 4734 (1984).
