Journal ArticleDOI

Electron-hole pair excitation determines the mechanism of hydrogen atom adsorption.

TL;DR: It is shown through experiments that H-atom collisions at an insulating surface (an adsorbed xenon layer on a gold single-crystal surface) are indeed nearly elastic, following the predictions of energy and momentum conservation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Imaging covalent bond formation by H atom scattering from graphene.

TL;DR: This work performs scattering experiments of H atoms from graphene and observed a bimodal translational energy loss distribution and shows that the quasi-elastic channel involves scattering through the physisorption well where collision sites are near the centers of the six-membered C-rings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unified description of H-atom-induced chemicurrents and inelastic scattering.

TL;DR: The theory explains the magnitude of chemicurrents on Ag Schottky diodes and resolves an apparent paradox––chemicurrents exhibit a much larger isotope effect than does H/D inelastic scattering.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrogen collisions with transition metal surfaces: Universal electronically nonadiabatic adsorption.

TL;DR: Inelastic scattering of H and D atoms from the surfaces of six fcc transition metals was investigated, and in each case, excitation of electron-hole pairs dominates the inelasticity.
Journal ArticleDOI

An ultrahigh vacuum apparatus for H atom scattering from surfaces

TL;DR: An apparatus to study inelastic H or D atom scattering from surfaces under ultra-high vacuum conditions by combining a photolysis-based atom source with Rydberg atom tagging time-of-flight and provides high resolution information on scattering energy and angular distributions.
