Abstract: | Angular dependent electron spin resonance measurements were taken for paramagnetic molecules adsorbed on metallic single crystal surfaces in UHV. For the hydrated Cu(NO3)2 complex on a Cu111] surface an angular dependent ESR signal is recorded. The plane ofthe molecule is found to lie preferentially out of the surface plane. Experiments on chemisorbed molecular O2 on Ag110] at 25 K and NO on Pt111] at 110 K show no sharp ESR signal characteristic for well localized moments. If one assumes that NO on Pt (respectively Pd) carries an unpaired spin, one can estimate a lower limit for the spin flip rate of π?1>2×109s?. |
