2. Rh(100) is a good candidate as a magnetic surface of a nonmagnetic material. The discussion from the theoretical and experimental perspectives can be found in N. Stojić, N. Binggeli, and M. Altarelli, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.73.100405 73, 100405 (R) (2006)

4. An example is surface melting. A pioneering experimental study can be found in J. W. M. Frenken and J. F. van der Veen, Phys. Rev. Lett. PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.54.134 54, 134 (1985).
5. The formation of mesoscopic stress domains has been a topic of interest both theoretically and experimentally within the past two decades. For an early and descriptive study, see the work of O. L. Alerhand, D. Vanderbilt, R. D. Meade, and J. D. Joannopoulos, Phys. Rev. Lett. PRLTAO 0031-9007 10.1103/PhysRevLett.61.1973 61, 1973 (1988).

42. We note that for the calculation of the force constants, we increased the kinetic energy cutoff to 50 Ry and the charge density cutoff to 500 Ry.

48. Note that for the stretched slab, the calculated stress value has a large contribution from the bulk of the slab, which cancels out by taking the difference between the two slabs with and without oxygen on the surface.
