Rainbow scattering under axial surface channeling

TL;DR: For scattering of fast atoms from metal surfaces under axial channeling conditions, this paper observed pronounced peaks in the angular distributions of scattered projectiles which can be interpreted in terms of rainbow scattering.

Scattering of hyperthermal nitrogen atoms from the Ag(111) surface.

TL;DR: Measurements on scattering of hyperthermal N atoms from the Ag(111) surface at temperatures of 500, 600, and 730 K are presented and there are noteworthy features in the angle-resolved energy of the scattered N when compared with Ar.

An apparatus for ion-surface collisional process studies and surface analysis

TL;DR: In this article, an experimental setup allowing both surface and interface analysis and ion-surface collisional process studies is described, which consists of an ion beam line which provides 1-80 keV mass analysed rare gas and alkali-metal ions, and an UHV chamber.

Growth, structure and stability of ultrathin iron films on Cu(001)

TL;DR: In this paper, room temperature deposited ultrathin iron films on Cu(001) were studied by low-energy ion scattering, and the films do not grow in a layer-by-layer fashion, as even at submonolayer coverages iron atoms are observed in the second layer due to iron incorporation into the original surface layer.
