We have studied the geometrical structure of the Pt(110) surface using medium-energy ion scattering. We find that the structure of the reconstructed (1×{}2) unit cell corresponds to a missing-row model with, in contrast to previous reports, a large contraction of the first interlayer spacing, and a buckling of the third layer. The model, which includes deep distortions, is very similar to the one recently established for Au(110)-(1×{}2). In addition, we have observed the CO-induced (1×{}1) phase, and find that it is well described as a disordered surface.
