Dynamics of Electron and Photon Stimulated Desorption
Robert E. Walkup,Phaedon Avouris +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, specific examples of desorption due to electron or photon bombardment of solids, in which the repulsive interactions that result in particle expulsion can be clearly identified, are discussed.
Book ChapterDOI
Image-Screening of Positive Ions at Metal Surfaces, and Electronically Stimulated Desorption of Noble Gas Atoms
TL;DR: In this paper, a local density functional approach was used to predict yields and energy distributions for Ar atoms which desorb upon ionization of physisorbed Ar. The calculated potentials provide a substantially improved description of the desorption process compared to previous models based on a classical image potential for the ion surface interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Excited-Atom Production by Electron Bombardment of Alkali-Halides
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present experimental results which suggest a new mechanism for the production of excited atoms and ions by electron bombardment of alkali-halides and show that the electronically excited atoms have a thermal velocity distribution in equilibrium with the surface temperature.
