Popis: A new method is proposed for investigating surface phenomena based on the observation of the acoustic vibration modes of surface structures at high resolution. Experimental SAWR spectra can be obtained under a narrow frequency band excitation (Δω/ω∼10 -5 ) in a wide range (100 kHz-10 MHz). Application of this method to Ag(111) and Pt(100) single crystals reveals the existence of very narrow resonant acoustic vibration modes with Δω/ω∼10 -3 -10 -44 demonstrating strong anomalies in the phonon energy distribution function of solids. The behaviour of these anomalous peaks is very sensitive to surface structure and to the presence of adsorbates
