8. If the separation of surface atoms plane from the next plane of atoms is different from the corresponding separation in the bulk crystal, and/or if the atomic positions in the surface plane are different from those in the parallel planes in the bulk, then the surface is called relaxed.
9. If the symmetry of the atomic arrangement on the surface is different from parallel planes deeper into the bulk, then the surface is called reconstructed.
