Atomic resolution scanning tunneling microscope images of the (2×1) and c(2×2) reconstructions of CdTe(001) are presented. Both reconstructions can be described by a structural model in which the surface is terminated with 0.5 ML twofold-coordinated Cd atoms. Step edges, domain boundaries and various types of point defects are characterized. The measurements indicate that the surface atoms are highly mobile at room temperature.
