We report STM-induced desorption of H from Sis100d-Hs2 3 1d at negative sample bias. The desorption rate exhibits a power-law dependence on current and a maximum desorption rate at 27 V. The desorption is explained by vibrational heating of H due to inelastic scattering of tunneling holes with the Si-H 5s hole resonance. The dependence of desorption rate on current and bias is analyzed using a ...

There are numerous indications that adsorbed particles on a surface do not desorb statistically, but that their spatial distribution is important. Evidence almost exclusively comes from temperature-programmed desorption, the standard method for measuring desorption rates. However, this method, as a kinetics experiment, cannot uniquely prove an atomic mechanism. Here we report a low-energy elect...

We investigated bioavailability, as measured by the biota-sediment accumulation factor (BSAF), of reversibly sorbed and desorption-resistant phenanthrene to the deposit-feeding freshwater tubificid oligochaete Ilyodrilus templetoni. Desorption-resistant, phenanthrene-contaminated sediments were prepared by a sequential batch desorption method by washing with an isopropanol solution. The BSAFs a...

canola is a prominent oil seed crop with a very high production potential in iran and the production process of which needs to be optimized. drying is an important part of the processing of the crop with emc values playing a vital role in the process. in this research adsorption and desorption experiments were conducted in an environmental chamber for licord variety of canola. the thin layer ex...

Curiously, H2 desorption from Si~100!-231 follows approximately first-order kinetics rather than the expected second-order kinetics, arousing interest about the mechanism involved in the desorption process. We investigate the energetics and rate constants of three proposed mechanisms for H2 desorption from Si~100!231, namely, the prepairing mechanism, the isomerization mechanism, and the isolat...

Desorption of benzene (C6H6) from solid water surfaces [compact amorphous solid water (c-ASW) and crystalline ice (CI)] during irradiation of ultrathin solid films with low energy (250-300 eV) electrons has been investigated. The observed desorption behaviour is complex but typically two desorption components, with particularly large cross-sections, were present in the observed signal. A fast c...

Unique physical properties such as small effective mass, high electron drift velocities, high electron mobility and small band gap energy make InN a candidate for applications in highspeed microelectronic and optoelectronic devices. The aim of this research is to understand the surface properties, desorption kinetics and thermal stability of InN epilayers that affect the growth processes and de...

To improve the coal permeability and outburst prevention, coal seam water injection and a series of outburst prevention measures were tested in outburst coal mines. These methods have become important technologies used for coal and gas outburst prevention and control by increasing the external moisture of coal or decreasing the stress of coal seam and changing the coal pore structure and gas de...

Desorption or evaporation is one of the mechanisms for loss of perfluoropolyalkylether (PFPE) lubricants from the surfaces of data storage media. One approach to minimizing PFPE loss to desorption is the use of lubricants with increasing molecular weight or increasing average chain length. In order to understand the effects of chain length on the lubricant evaporation kinetics we have studied t...

Ion induced desorption is a severe luminosity limitation for low charge state heavy ion accelerators. Therefore, it was intensively investigated in dedicated experiments during recent years. Several experimental results were obtained providing numerous desorption yields for different ion beam parameters and different materials as well as surface treatments. The heavy ion induced desorption was ...
