Abstract: | Prism surfaces of ZnO crystals are prepared by various pretreatments as heating in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV), annealing in oxygen at pressures up to 105 Pa, argon bombardment, cleavage in UHV. An organic dye is deposited by sublimation in UHV and the exposure (1012−1015 cm−2 is recorded by means of a vibrating quartz. Adsorption and desorption studies including thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS) are performed with variation of crystal temperature during deposition and of coverage. In these experiments the spectral distribution of absorption is used for the recording of coverage down to about 1012 cm−2, for the observation of ordering processes within the dye layer and for the detection of dye decomposition. By the various treatments the catalytic activity of the ZnO surface for decomposition of the dye molecules at temperatures above 350 K can be increased or decreased in a wide range. Possible sources of the activity are discussed. Molecules bound to a clean inactive ZnO surface desorb above 600 K. In contrast they come off already at 350 K if they are bound only to other molecules. A sticking coefficient is derived as a function of coverage at 470 K and compared with calculations after several adsorption models. The best fit is obtained by a precursor state model. |
