a Rydberg-like series of electronic states bound in front of a metal surface by the image force and held off the surface by a surface band gap.

In surface science, image potential states refers to a Rydberg-like series of electronic states bound in front of a metal surface by the image force and held off the surface by a surface band gap. This meaning comes from Echenique (1978) in Journal of Physics C: Solid State Physics.[1]
