(e,2e) Spectroscopy of ethane

The 400-eV and 1200-eV non-coplanar symmetric (e, 2e) reaction has been used to measure the momentum distributions of electrons in the individual valence orbitals of ethane as well as to measure the complete separation energy spectra in the valence region. The shapes and relative magnitudes of the momentum distributions agree well with those calculated using the plane wave off-shell impulse approximation and double zeta basis molecular orbital wave functions. The ground state of C₂H₆⁺ is shown to be 1e_g^?1, with the vertical ionization potential being 12.25 ± 0.1 eV. Considerable structure due to configuration interaction is observed in the separation energy region 29–55 eV. Much of this structure can be assigned to the 2a_1g orbital.

(e, 2e) spectroscopy of N2—valence momentum distributions and configuration interaction

The noncoplanar symmetric (e, 2e) reaction has been applied to N₂ at 1200, 600 and 400 eV. Separation energy spectra are obtained in the valence region, the observed structure extending to above 60 eV. Electron momentum profiles are measured at a number of separation energies. They agree very well with the momentum distributions for valence orbitals given by SCF calculations. Considerable configuration interaction structure is observed, being primarily due to configuration interaction in the 2σ_g hole state. At 1200 eV the spectroscopic sum rule is satisfied within experimental error, confirming the validity of the analysis.     

Angle-resolved photoemission from molecular N2 adsorbed on Ni(100)

Angle-resolved photoemission has been used to study the band structure of the ordered c(2 × 2) molecular nitrogen overlayer chemisorbed on Ni(100). The molecular nitrogen chemisorbs to the Ni(100) with the molecular axis perpendicular to the surface. The 1π_u, 3σ_g and 2σ_u (1π, 5σ and 4σ of adsorbed N₂) orbitals of N₂ are identified at 8.1 ± 0.05, 8.3 ± 0.1 and 12.8 ± 0.2 eV below the nickel Fermi energy at Г̄gG respectively. Angle-resolved photoemission of adsorbed molecular N₂ exhibits several satellite lines with less kinetic energy than the primary molecular orbital emission. These satellite lines are a final state effect. A k_∥ (parallel momentum vector) dependence of the satellite line intensity was observed.     

Study of molecular orbitals by means of (e,2e) spectroscopy on oriented molecules

The usefulness of the (e,2e) technique applied to the study of the electron momentum density for orbitals oriented in space is discussed. Calculations on N₂ and CO are used to show the potential usefulness of this technique in investigating the bonding properties of molecules. A brief mention of those phenomena in which oriented molecules are involved is made.     

A numerical study of the convergency of second and approximate second-order multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock procedures

A detailed numerical study has been made of the convergency of second-and approximate second-order multiconfigurational Hartree-Fock procedures. Calculations were performed on the excited 2p ^{2 1} S state of Be and on the lowest states of ³Σ _g ^-, ¹δ _g , ¹Σ _g ⁺, ¹Δ _g and ³Δ _g symmetry in O₂. The O₂ calculations included all configurations that could be formed from doubly occupied core orbitals with eight electrons in the valence orbitals, 3σ _g , 1π _u , 1π _g and 3σ _u . All second-order calculations converged in between 4 and 6 iterations even for a case where approximate second-order procedures did not converge.     

Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy of benzene and hexafluorobenzene as a function of photon energy

Angle-resolved photoelectron spectra of benzene have been recorded using synchrotron radiation as the photon source. From these results the angular dis the first three orbitals; 1e_1g(π), 3e_2g (σ) and 1a_2u(π). Calculations of β employing the MS Xα method have also b and theory for the first two orbitals is excellent. Poor agreement in the core of the third orbital is believed to be due to overlap of the second and has been verified by data obtained for perfluorobenzene. The universality of the energy dependence of β for π orbitals, noted previously for unsatu aromatic systems. The importance of the results for benzene for the future application of angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy to complex molecule     

Configuration interaction calculations of the satellite peaks observed in the core and valence photoelectron spectra of N2

Configuration interaction calculations are used to interpret satellite peaks observed in the X-ray and He (II) photoelectron spectra of N₂. Using a basis containing diffuse atomic functions, the X-ray peaks are assigned to states involving transitions to valence and Rydberg type orbitals. The three satellites in the He (II) spectrum are correlated with states involving occupancy of the 1π_g and 4σ_g molecular orbitals.     

An XPS and UPS study of the kinetics of carbon monoxide oxidation over Ag(111)

The oxidation of carbon monoxide over a Ag(111) catalyst has been studied by XPS and UPS. The kinetics have been determined over the temperature range of 180 to 400 K and found to be of the Langmuir-Hinshelwood type, although the Eley-Rideal mechanism is mimicked. A negative activation energy, ?1.7 kcal/mole, and a preexponential, 6 × 10^?18 cm², are found. The former corresponds to the difference in the activation energies for carbon monoxide desorption and for carbon monoxide oxidation (leading to CO₂ desorption). At 90 K, upon carbon monoxide exposure to the active oxygen precovered surface, the O ls and C ls spectral regions show the formation of CO₂-like and carbonate species; the latter is stable to at least room temperature. That is, at 90 K, the residence time and mobility of CO₂ formed at the surface permits a new surface reaction — the formation of stable surface carbonate. The identifications are based on C and O coverages and on line positions from the literature for Cu/CO₂ and several bulk carbonates. With UPS, the 1π_g, the unresolved doublet 1π_u and 3σ_g, and the 4σ_g molecular orbitals of adsorbed CO₂-like species are identified, as well as the unresolved triplet 1α′₂, 1e″ and 4e′ and the unresolved triplet 3e′, 1α″₂ and 4a′ molecular orbitals of the carbonate species. Surface CO₂-like species formed by surface oxidation of CO seem to be more strongly bound than reversibly adsorbed CO₂.     

Momentum transfer dependence behaviors of ionization and dissociation of oxygen

The decay pathways of the structured ionization region of oxygen at different momentum transfers,i.e.,0,0.23 a.u.(atomic unit),and 0.91 a.u.,are studied by measuring the ion and the scattered electron coincidently.It is found that the dipole-forbidden superexcited states of(2σu)-1(c4Σu-)npσu 3Σg-← X3Σg-decay into different channels according to the principal quantum number n.The broad ridge above 35 eV,which may be due to inner-valence excited states of(2σg)-1nλ or multiply excited states,is observed both at small and large momentum transfers,and its decay channel of O++ O is dominant.     

Interference effects on (e, 2e) electron momentum profiles of CF4

Interference effects on electron momentum profiles have been studied using binary (e, 2e) spectroscopy for the three outermost molecular orbitals of CF(4), which are composed of the F 2p nonbonding atomic orbitals. An analysis of the measured spherically averaged electron momentum densities has clearly shown the presence of oscillatory structures having direct information about the internuclear distance between the F atoms. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the phase of the oscillatory structures depends upon the orientation in space of the constituent atomic orbitals.

Photoelectron spectra of substituted benzenes: II. Seven valence electron substituents

The He I photoelectron spectra of the isoelectronic series of substituted benzenes toluene, aniline, phenol, and fluorobenzene have been measured and the ionization bands in the low binding energy region of the spectra have been identified and assigned. The spectrum of pentafluoroaniline has also been obtained in order to use the “perfluoro effect” to identify the lowest energy σ ionization band. The photoelectron bands were assigned by using a “composite molecule” approach in which the known levels of benzene and the various substituents are correlated with those of the molecule, by using information supplied by vibrational analysis of the bands, and by reference to CNDO/2 and INDO MO calculations. The spectra of these composite molecules are consistent with the … 1a_2u(π), 3e_2g(σ), 1e_1g(π) MO configuration of benzene. The e_1g(π) orbital is split into two components in all of these substituted benzenes. Vibrational progressions in the ring CC stretching and the X-sensitive modes have been identified in these π ionization bands. Excitation of these two modes is evidence for delocalization of the π electrons over the composite molecule. The n (nonbonding) orbital of the substituents is shown to occur in the penultimate region along with the 1a_2u(π) and 3e_2g(σ) orbitals. The shifts in the n and π orbitals between the composite molecules and their constituent molecules are discussed in terms of resonance and inductive effects.

Experimental and theoretical investigations into the electronic structure of CF2Br2 by electron momentum spectroscopy

The binding energy spectra and electron momentum density distributions for the valence orbitals of CF₂Br₂ have been obtained by using electron momentum spectroscopy (EMS) at an impact energy of 1200 eV plus binding energy. The measured electron momentum profiles are compared with Hartree–Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations with different-sized basis sets. In general, the DFT-B3LYP calculation using the large basis sets of 6-311++G** and aug-cc-pVTZ fairly describe the experimental results. Moreover, the controversial orderings of the outer valence orbitals have been reassigned. The pole strength of the main ionization transition from the inner valence orbital of 1b₂ is determined.

The lifetime of the 2pπu → 1sσg transition of the F2+ center in KCl

The lifetime of the 2pπ_u → 1sσ_g transition for the F₂⁺ center in KCl has been measured (15.8 ± 0.7 ns at 8 K) and found to be constant over the temperature range (8–90 K) investigated. No contradiction is found with the Aegerter and Lüty quantum yield data. A forecast for the lifetime of the 2pσ_u → 1sσ_g transition is also made, within the framework of the H₂⁺ model for the F₂⁺ center in alkali halides.
