Step structure on the fivefold Al–Pd–Mn quasicrystal surface, and on related surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare step morphologies on surfaces of Al-rich metallic alloys, both quasicrystalline and crystalline, and show that the large-scale step structure observed on Alrich quasICrystals after quenching to room temperature reflects equilibrium structure at an elevated temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low-temperature adsorption of H2S on Ni(001) studied by near-edge- and surface-extended-x-ray-absorption fine structure.

TL;DR: The findings differ from previously reported interpretations of data obtained with high-resolution electron-energy-loss spectroscopy and exemplify the utility of NEXAFS for identifying and quantifying atomic and molecular surface species even when their difference involves only H and the two species coexist.
Journal ArticleDOI

A photoemission study of H2O adsorption on a vicinal Si(100) surface

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-resolution core and valence band photoemission study of the clean and H 2 O-covered vicinal one-domain Si(100) surface is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scaling parameters for gold and copper cluster growth on an alumina single crystal surface

TL;DR: In this article, the growth of gold and copper nanoparticles on a γ-Al2O3 single crystal surface has been investigated using LEED and STM and the particle size distributions were determined as a function of the metal vapour dosage and furthermore, the Volmer-Weber growth mechanism and a semi-log scaling law were deduced from these data.
