The surface structure of the epitaxial NiSi 2 /Si(111) system has been determined applying a new ion-scattering method. Detecting backscattered ions with ultrahigh-energy resolution we resolve the signals from successive atomic layers. From both their intensity and energy, which depends on the specific ion trajectories, we directly deduce the (sub)surface atom coordinates. Applying this new approach, we find that the NiSi 2 (111) surface has a bulklike topology, i.e., it is terminated by a Si-Ni-Si triple layer
