Low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and low energy ion scattering (LEIS) are used to investigate the surface composition before and after halogen exposure. It is found that Br$_2$ weakly chemisorbs to the Se- or Te-terminated clean surfaces and light annealing removes the adsorbates restoring the intact surfaces. In contrast, halogens dissociatively adsorb onto surfaces covered with an additional bilayer of Bi, having a p-doping effect.
