Oxidation of gold by oxygen-ion sputtering
TL;DR: In this article, thermal desorption spectroscopy (TDS), work function measurements (ΔΦ), and low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) was used to characterize oxygen species produced by bombardment of a gold surface with oxygen ions (O+/O2+).

Surface structure determination using X-ray standing waves: a simple view
TL;DR: In this paper, the coherent position and the coherent fraction of a single-high-symmetry-site adorption system are interpreted in terms of a structural model, but in the case of multiple adorptions sites, these parameters are related to spatial distribution functions through a Fourier integral, and a particularly simple way of viewing this result, in terms with vector (Argand) diagrams, allows many simple cases and general theorems concerning the interconnection of the structure and the XSW fitting parameters to be visualized.

Fast atom diffraction during grazing scattering from surfaces
H. Winter,A. Schüller +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of quantum scattering for atoms and molecules with impact energies in the keV range on well ordered surfaces at glancing angles of incidence has demonstrated substantial potential as surface analytical tool.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elastic and inelastic processes in the interaction of 1–10 eV ions with solids: ion transport through surface layers
TL;DR: In this article, the escape depth of secondary ions desorbing from solid surfaces under the impact of electrons, photons or ions is reviewed, but most are wide band gap insulators such as rare-gas solids and molecular solids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface characterization study of AgF and AgF2 powders using XPS and ISS
John T. Wolan,Gar B. Hoflund +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, XPS and ISS data have been collected from pressed AgF and AgF2 powder samples obtained from AESAR and the samples were sputter-cleaned in vacuum for 10 min with 1 keV He+ to reduce the amounts of surface contaminants present.

The theory of atomic collisions
TL;DR: The perturbation theory has been applied to many-body problems and applications, such as electron collisions with atoms, collisions between atomic systems, nuclear collisions, and certain aspects of two-body systems under relativistic collisions.
