Abstract

The exact wave functions, which describe the states of an electron, bound in the image potential, and the magnetic field, which is perpendicular to surface of a metal, are obtained. The correction terms to the energy of an electron in the first order of the perturbation theory with respect to the interaction with the external electric field are calculated. The possibility of experimental measurement of a local electric field by the level shift is analyzed.
