Surface composition analysis by low-energy ion scattering

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of surface composition analysis by low-energy ion scattering (LEIS) is presented, where the authors summarize the present understanding of the factors that determine the ion fraction of the scattered particles in LEIS, i.e. charge exchange processes.

STM study of the geometric and electronic structure of ZnO(0001)-Zn, (0001̄)-O, (101̄0), and (112̄0) surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, structural models for the different surfaces of ZnO surfaces are proposed and related to the stability and reactivity of the surfaces, based on these results, structural models are proposed.

Collisions of atoms and ions with surfaces under grazing incidence

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed discussion of the scattering of fast atoms and ions from solid surfaces under a grazing angle of incidence is presented Theoretical and experimental results are used to demonstrate that collisions employing this scattering geometry provide interesting new phenomena and insights into atom-surface interactions.

Interaction of slow multicharged ions with solid surfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the main aspects of the interaction of slow (impact velocity typically below 1 a.u.) multicharged ions (MCI) with atomically clean solid surfaces of metals, semiconductors and insulators are discussed.

Adsorbate structure determination on surfaces using photoelectron diffraction

TL;DR: A review of the background physics of the process and the development of the technique is described in this article, and a brief discussion of the high energy forward scattering version of the X-ray photoelectron diffraction-XPD is included, but the most of the review is concerned with the lower energy backscattering method more relevant to the determination of detailed adsorption sites on surfaces.

Ion scattering spectroscopy in the impact collision mode (ICISS): Surface structure information from noble gas and alkali-ion scattering

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact collision mode has been carried out in three modes: primary noble gas ions and detection of ions only (usual ICISS), detection of both ions and neutrals (NICISS), and use of primary alkali ions (ALICISS).

Theory of charge exchange in the scattering of molecular ions from simple metals.

TL;DR: The axis-orientation dependence of the triplet occupation probability and the dissociation-fragment relative kinetic-energy distribution are calculated, as is the vibrational population distribution of the singlet ground state.

Negative ion formation and dissociation in scattering of fast O2 and NO from Ag(111) and Pt(111)

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of scattering of 80-300 eV O2 and NO from Ag(111 and Pt(111) single crystal surfaces are presented, where the O−2 distribution is detected in the specular direction, whereas an off-specular shift towards the surface is observed for scattering from Pt(1).
