We present our new time of flight-ion scattering spectrometer. A clean GaAs (110) surface has been prepared by: (i) standard cycles of ion bombardment and annealing and (ii) cycles of grazing ion bombardment and annealing. We have found that the surface can be smoothed out by this last method. We have measured the intensity of 5 keV Ne backscattered from the surface for different incidence directions. The scattering features are in good agreement with the accepted surface relaxation. {copyright} {ital 1996 American Institute of Physics.}
