- A strong low-energy shake-up satellite for CO adsorbed on Pd is observed. The occurrence of the satellite is established for the CO/1 ML Pd/Mo(110) system at a coverage where CO adsorbs exclusively on-top. Comparisons with CO adsorbed on Pd single-crystal surfaces and small supported Pd particles indicate that the strongly increased satellite intensity is due to the decreased CO-Pd interaction strength for on-top adsorbed CO. This can be used to get further insight into the structure and bonding properties of the adsorbate system. Since a low-energy shake-up feature may be misinterpreted as a chemically shifted component, the conclusion is that great care has to be taken in the evaluation of adsorbate core-level spectra for systems with large variations in adsorption strength depending on the adsorbate sites. Large variations in the CO site distribution may furthermore occur depending on the nature of the Pd substrate: Adsorption of CO on 1 ML Pd/Mo(110) leads to an overlayer dominated by an on-top species and, likewise, the CO overlayer formed on small Pd particles after large doses has a large fraction of on-top bonded species. This is in strong contrast to Pd single-crystal surfaces, where CO adsorbed in more highly coordinated sites is abundant.

Soft x-ray emission studies of adsorbates

- Soft x-ray emission spectroscopy is for the first time applied to surfaces and adsorbates. Surface sensitivity is achieved by employing synchrotron radiation in grazing incidence for the excitation. We present O K emission from adsorbed atomic oxygen on Ni(100) and Cu(100) and molecular CO on Ni(100). The observed spectral features correspond to the occupied 2p partial density of states of the adsorbates.

Intermixing in the Na on Al(111) system
- 1992

Ingår i: Physical Review Letters. - 0031-9007. ; 68:1, s. 94-97
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Ordered structures formed by Na adsorption on the Al(111) surface are investigated by high-resolution core-level spectroscopy. It is shown that, contrary to the common picture of alkali adsorption, two of the structures formed at room temperature consist of intermixed Na-Al layers. The results for the (3 ×)-rotated-30°structure are also consistent with intermixing although they do not provide any definite proof. For Na layers deposited at 100 K no intermixing is found.

Adsorption properties of a mixed surface studied by high resolution core level photoemission : CO/0.5 ML Pd/Rh(111)

- The coverage-dependent adsorption properties of a laterally heterogeneous bimetallic surface have been investigated by high resolution core level photoemission and low energy electron diffraction. The specific system under study was CO adsorbed on a Rh(111) surface onto which 2D Pd islands (coverage 0.5 ML) were formed by vapor deposition. The CO adsorption properties of the heterogeneous surface were compared with CO adsorption on a Rh(111) surface covered with a full Pd monolayer and with previous results for the CO/Rh(111) system. For low exposures CO is only found on the Rh(111) patches which can be explained by diffusion of CO from the Pd islands onto Rh parts in the adsorption process. At higher exposures CO diffusion from Rh to Pd is indicated. The origin of the diffusion processes can be found in the different coverage-dependent CO adsorption energies on the two surface parts.

Coverage- and temperature-dependent site occupancy of carbon monoxide on Rh(111) studied by high-resolution core-level photoemission
- 1998

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- High-resolution core-level photoemission is used to study structural aspects for the molecular adsorption of CO on the Rh(111) single-crystal surface, and in particular to derive the adsorption sites. The site sensitivity of the core-level binding energy and the fact that the core level photoemission signal is proportional to the adsorbate coverage make it possible to study quantitatively how the occupation of different sites changes with temperature and/or CO coverage. For the CO/Rh(111) adsorption system we find two sites (on-top and three-fold hollow) to be occupied by the CO molecules. At coverages up to 0.33 ML only on-top sites are occupied, whereas at higher coverages a mixture of three-fold hollow and on-top sites are found. The distribution between these two sites is found to depend strongly on temperature. Quantitative studies of these reversible, temperature-dependent site changes have been carried out for a number of CO coverages. For coverages between 0.33 and ∼0.54 ML, increasing the temperature results in part of the molecules moving from on-top to three-fold hollow sites. This change is strongest for a (4 × 4) structure formed at 0.5 ML where an order-disorder transition is observed at a temperature of 120 K. For coverages above ∼0.54 ML, increasing the temperature leads instead to a decrease of the relative occupation of the three-fold hollow sites. For coverages below 0.33 ML, the molecules occupy on-top sites at all temperatures.

- We have investigated CO adsorption at 300 K on ∼ 1.5 atomic layer thick Pd films on a Mo(110) surface by high-resolution core level photoemission. We describe how high-resolution core level spectroscopy may be utilized to study the influence of laterally mobile states on the sticking probability of molecules on such a laterally heterogeneous surface. The present Pd films are laterally heterogeneous in the sense that the additional ∼ 0.5 atomic Pd layer forms mesoscopic one-layer thick islands on top of the first Pd layer. At 300 K, CO chemisorbs on these two-layer thick islands but not on the one-layer parts of the film. The rate at which these two-layer islands are filled by CO molecules as the surface is exposed to CO is found to be consistent with a picture where CO molecules that initially impinge on the one-layer parts of the surface enter a laterally mobile state and diffuse to the two-layer islands and adsorb there. This mobile state is in many respects similar to a classical precursor state.
