It is shown, that the well-known d-electron Tamm surface-state emission observed in photoelectron spectra from Cu(111) at the M̄ point in the surface Brillouin zone, is indeed due to such a surface state and not a bulk band transition as recently suggested L. Wallden, Solid State Commun.59, 205 (1986). A similar surface state on Ag(111) is reported. 相似文献

Electronic structure of epitaxial Co films on Pd(111) has been investigated as a function of the Co overlayer thickness, by using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). It is found that experimental band structures for Pd(111) and work functions for Co/Pd(111) agree reasonably well with the results of band structure calculations. Compared to Pd(111), valence band ARPES spectra of Co/Pd(111) support the existence of the induced magnetic polarization of Pd atoms near the interface, suggesting large hybridization between Co 3d and Pd 4d states near the interface. 相似文献
High resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy has been applied to study the adsorption of benzene (C6H6 and C6D6) on Pt(111) and Ni(111) single crystal surfaces between 140 and 320 K. The vibrational spectra provide evidence that benzene is chemisorbed with its ring parallel to the surface, predominantly π bonded to the platinum and nickel surface respectively. A significant frequency increase of the CH-out-of-plane bending mode, largest in the case of platinum, is observed compared to the free molecule. On both metals two phases of benzene exist simultaneously, characterized by a different frequency shift. The shifts are explained by electronic interaction between the metal d-orbitals and molecules adsorbed in on top and threefold hollow sites respectively. The vibrational spectra of the multilayer condensed phase of benzene exhibit the infrared active modes of the gasphase molecule as expected. 相似文献
In order to study the effects of photon-polarization selection rules on chemisorptionbond geometry, we have measured photoelectron spectra as a function of angle of incidence, θi, in the range 28° ? θ ? 80°. A noble-gas UV resonance lamp and cylindrical mirror analyzer were used to measure both bonding and non-bonding surface Orbitals. A large enhancement (200–400%) of the photocmission is found when photon electric field intensity is near the maximum normal to the surface. This indicates a spatial variation of microscopic fields which is approximately independent of adsorbate bonding since it is determined by the optical properties of the substrate. In addition, we observe some effects on adsorbate photoelectron peaks due to different orbital symmetry. The case of atomic hydrogen chemisorption is discussed as an example of this latter effect. 相似文献
Density-functional calculations on the polar TiX(111) (X = C, N) surfaces show (i) for clean surfaces, strong Ti3d-derived surface resonances (SR’s) at the Fermi level and X2p-derived SR’s deep in the upper valence band and (ii) for adatoms in periods 1-3, pyramidic trends in atomic adsorption energies, peaking at oxygen (9 eV). A concerted-coupling model, where adatom states couple to both kinds of SR’s in a concerted way, describes the adsorption. The chemisorption versatility and the general nature of the model indicate ramifications and predictive abilities in, e.g., growth and catalysis. 相似文献
The Auger spectra of carbon monoxide adsorbed on Pt(111) and Cu(111) are compared. The characteristic features now regarded as a fingerprint of this adsorbed species are observed, even for the weakly adsorbed CO on copper which gives complex X-ray photoelectron spectra. No coverage dependence of the spectra was observed on either substrate. The C lsVV spectrum of CO/Cu(111) is dominated by transitions involving the “screening” electron in the 2π orbital. 相似文献
By means of first‐principles calculations we predict the stability of silicene as buckled honeycomb lattice on passivated substrates of group‐IV(111)1 × 1 surfaces. The weak van‐der‐Waals interaction between silicene and substrates does not destroy its linear bands forming Dirac cones at the Brillouin zone corners. Only very small fundamental gaps are opened around the Fermi level.
An expression for calculating the effective diffusion length from the measured values of the height and density of nanowhiskers
is derived in terms of the diffusion growth model. From experimental data for GaAs nanowhisker MBE growth, the diffusion lengths
of Ga adatoms on the GaAs(111) and AlAs(111) surfaces are evaluated. Under typical growth conditions, the value of the Ga
diffusion length is found to be about several hundreds of nanometers. 相似文献
The adsorption, desorption, and structural properties of chlorine adlayers on Cu(111) and Ag(111) have been studied by LEED, Auger, Δ?, and thermal desorption measurements. Ancillary experiments were also carried out on cuprous chloride for purposes of comparison with the Cu(111)-Cl data. Chlorine adsorption is rapid on both metals and follows precursor kinetics, the absolute initial sticking probabilities being ~1.0 (Cu) and ~0.5 (Ag). Δ? results suggest that significant depolarisation of the chemisorption bond occurs at high coverages, the maximum values being + 1.2 eV (Cu) and + 1.8 eV (Ag). On Cu(111), adsorption leads to the formation of a sequence of well-ordered phases; in order of increasing coverage, these are as follows: (√3 × √3)R30°, (12√3 × 12√3)R30°, (4√7 × 4√7)R19.2°, and (6√3 × 6√3)R30°. On Ag(111) (√3 × √3)R30°, and (10 × 10) structures are observed. All six structures are susceptible to a straightforward interpretation in terms of coincidence lattices resulting from the progressive uniform compression of a hexagonal layer of Cl atoms. This interpretation is consistent with all the experimental results, and gives values for the nearest-neighbour ClCl spacing on both Cu(111) and Ag(111) which are in good agreement with other work on other surfaces. Chlorine desorbs exclusively as atoms from both metals with first-order desorption kinetics, and apparent desorption energies of 236 (Cu) and 209 (Ag) kJ mol?1. These values, which depend on an assumed pre-exponential factor of 1013 s?1, are shown to be inconsistent with the thermochemical constraints on the system necessitated by the complete absence of Cl2 desorption. Lower limits for the pre-exponential factors are then deduced, and the values are found to be consistent with the differences between the CuCl and AgCl systems. 相似文献
The specific aspects of phase formation phenomena involved in electrodeposition of conducting polymer layers are critically
discussed. The mechanism of formation and the properties of electrodeposited thin polyaniline (PANI) films on Au(111) and
p-Si(111) are investigated by means of transient measurements, cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy
and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Experimental results show that the initial stages of PANI electrodeposition on Au(111)
can be described by a model including progressive appearance and preferential 2D growth of polymer islands. The electropolymerization
process on p-Si(111) substrates is preceded by anodic formation of an inhomogeneous thin SiO2 layer giving rise to a progressive appearance and growth of 3D PANI islands. The electrochemical redox properties of electrodeposited
PANI films on p-Si(111) are influenced strongly by the electronic band structure of silicon.
