چکیده
The clean Ta(100) surface and some aspects of hydrogen adsorption have been studied by LEED and AES. The thorough examination of LEED patterns did not provide any evidence for an atomic reconstruction of the clean surface over the entire temperature range investigated, 150-600 K. The r-factor analysis used for comparison between measured and calculated IV spectra yields a contraction of the topmost layer spacing of about 11% and an expansion of the second layer spacing of about 1% compared to the bulk value. The hydrogen adsorption does not induce any superstructures, but small hydrogen exposures lass then 1 L influence J-V spectra substantially.

متن کاملInfrared surface-wave interferometry on W(100).
An IR grating on a clean W(100) surface is shown to generate both homogeneous and inhomogeneous surface electromagnetic waves. An observed interference between these two components, which can be described in terms of a two-beam interferometer with variable arm amplitude and fixed optical path, is used to measure the plasma frequency accurately in the IR.
متن کاملSTRUCTURE DETERMINATION OF THE CLEAN Co(1120) SURFACE BY LEED
The atomic structure of the (1120) surface of cobalt has been determined by LEED using six intensity spectra at normal incidence. The surface exhibits the truncated bulk structure with a contraction of the first interlayer spacing by about 8.5% with respect to the bulk value. Quantitative evaluation of the LEED spectra was done using Zanazzi and Jona’s and Pendry’s r-factors. The minimum averag...
