ADSORPTION OF ATOMIC AND MOLECULAR OXYGEN ON Si ( 00 1 ) 2 x 1 : COVERAGE DEPENDENCE OF THE AUGER O K V V LINESHAPE

چکیده

By means of Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) we have monitored the room temperature adsorption of 02 and N20 on the clean Si(0 0 1)2 x I surface. We have found, for the first time, a significant variation in the intensity ratio of the K Lt L~ and K L23 L23 O Auger lines in the submonolayer range. This variation can be related to a change in bonding configuration of the oxygen atom/molecule in the initial adsorption stage in which the influence of inter-atomic matrix elements of the Auger process cannot be neglected.

K / inetics of the adsorption of atomic oxygen ( N 20 ) on the Si ( 001 ) 2 × 1 surface as revealed by the change in the surface conductance

The adsorption behaviour of N20 on the Si(001)2 × ! surface at 300 K substrate temperature has been investigated by measuring in situ the surface conductance during the reaction process. For comparison we monitored in the same way the adsorption of 0 2 on the same surface which ultimately leads to the fiat band situation. The adsorption of atomic oxygen as released by decomposition of the N20 m...

Self-assembled organic and biological films

In situ spectroscopic ellipsometry is employed to investigate the adsorption of Yeast Cytochrome c (YCC) on SiO2/Si substrates. In order to highlight the slight variations induced by protein adsorption, difference spectra (δΔ and δΨ) have been considered, following the approach introduced in our previous studies on self-assembled monolayers. The difference spectra show a s...

Auger electron angular distribution of double core-hole states in the molecular reference frame.

The Linac Coherent Light Source free electron laser is a source of high brightness x rays, 2×10(11) photons in a ∼5 fs pulse, that can be focused to produce double core vacancies through rapid sequential ionization. This enables double core vacancy Auger electron spectroscopy, an entirely new way to study femtosecond chemical dynamics with Auger electrons that probe the local valence structure ...

Adsorption of atomic and molecular oxygen on Cu(1 0 0)

We have studied the initial stages of the oxidation of the Cu(1 0 0) surface using ab initio calculations. Both atomic and molecular oxygen are addressed. We show that subsurface oxygen is not energetically favourable, but gets stabilized by on-surface O. We discuss the adsorption of molecular oxygen using elbow plots, which can be used in order to qualitatively understand the measured sticking...

Investigation of methane oxidation by palladium-based catalyst via ReaxFF Molecular Dynamics simulation

Catalytic oxidations of methane over palladium-based nanoparticles, with and without oxygen coating, are investigated using ReaxFF Molecular Dynamics simulations. The simulation results show the complete dynamic process of the above catalytic reactions at the atomic level and help to reveal the underlying mechanisms both qualitatively and quantitatively. It is found that oxygen molecules are si...
