Metal Adatom Induced Corrugation of Cu(001)
We report the discovery of a metal adatom induced corrugation of Cu(001) as probed by atom beam scattering (ABS). At Pb or Bi coverages of 0.05 (fraction of Cu layer), and while a (1×1) LEED pattern is still observed, the ABS diffraction pattern from uncovered Cu(001) areas has changed considerably from that of clean Cu(001). We show that these uncovered areas have become up to ten times more c...
متن کاملSurface phase transitions induced by electron mediated adatom-adatom interaction.
We propose that the indirect adatom-adatom interaction mediated by the conduction electrons of a metallic surface is responsible for the sqrt[3]xsqrt[3]<==>3x3 structural phase transitions observed in Sn/Ge (111) and Pb/Ge (111). When the indirect interaction overwhelms the local stress field imposed by the substrate registry, the system suffers a phonon instability, resulting in a structural p...
متن کاملMulti-adatom Interactions on Metal Surfaces
The determination of interactions in adsorbed layers has attracted much attention in recent years due to their importance for the crystal growth, interface formation and heterogeneous catalysis. Experimental information about two-, threeand many body interactions can be extracted, at least in a qualitative way, from adsorbate superstructures on single crystals observed by low energy electron di...
متن کاملCorrugation of Roads
We present a one dimensional model for the development of cor-rugations in roads subjected to compressive forces from a flux of cars. The cars are modeled as damped harmonic oscillators translating with constant horizontal velocity across the surface, and the road surface is subject to diffusive relaxation. We derive dimensionless coupled equations of motion for the positions of the cars and th...
متن کاملEffect of Rail Corrugation on the Amount of Train Induced Vibrations near a Historical Building
The evaluation and control of the trains induced vibrations needs even more attention in the case of underground tracks which passes near to monuments and historical sites. The rail corrugations which occur due to the wheels’ impulse loads during the operation period of underground railway tracks, usually amplify the ground borne noise and vibration. In the current study, the mentioned phenomen...
