Typically, surface states exist if:

1. Character is similar to a bulk state, but shifted in energy by the surface perturbation

Vanderbilt Lecture, Surface Science, 3/4/2013

2.  State of new character, e.g., a “broken bond” or “adsorbate state”, is created at the surface

Typically, surface states exist if:

Typically the state is near the middle of the gap and is very localized (e.g., within one or a few atom distances from the surface in real space)
