Analysis of the surface film formed on Mg by exposure to water using a FIB cross-section and STEM–EDS

TL;DR: In this paper, the composition and structure of the surface film formed on pure Mg exposed at the corrosion potential in pure water for 48h was investigated using a FIB cross-section and STEM-EDS.

Transmission Electron Microscopy Study of Aqueous Film Formation and Evolution on Magnesium Alloys

TL;DR: Ooa et al. as mentioned in this paper discussed the implications of these findings on plant growth and proposed an open-access approach for non-commercial reuse, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is not changed in any way and is properly cited.

Characterization of oxide layers on Mg(0001) and comparison of H2O adsorption on surface and bulk oxides

TL;DR: In this paper, the composition, continuity, stoichiometry, and thickness of MgO thin films formed on the Mg(0001) surface were characterized by AES, ISS, UPS and XPS.

Chemically Accurate Simulation of a Polyatomic Molecule-Metal Surface Reaction.

TL;DR: The specific reaction parameter (SRP) approach to density functional theory with ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) extends the ability to model reactions with metals with quantitative accuracy from only the lightest reactant, H2, to essentially all molecules.

Excitations at interfaces and small particles

A. Howie, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1985 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the STEM results on valence electron excitations and secondary electron emission from small particles are presented, and it is shown that classical dielectric theory seems to be capable of explaining many of the observations even at quite high spatial resolution.

Electronic Spectrum and Ultraviolet Optical Properties of Crystalline MgO

TL;DR: Magnesium oxide single crystal electronic spectrum obtained from reflectance spectra, observing large plasma peak in energy loss function as mentioned in this paper, was obtained from the reflectance spectrum of a single crystal as mentioned in this paper.

X-ray photoelectron studies of the reaction of clean metals (Mg, Al, Cr, Mn) with oxygen and water vapour

TL;DR: In this article, the X-ray excited photoelectron spectrum during exposure of clean magnesium, aluminium, chromium and manganese to oxygen and water vapour, provide data on the kinetics of reaction with these gases.

Dielectric function of Si‐SiO2 and Si‐Si3N4 mixtures

TL;DR: In this paper, the dielectric function of Si−SiO2 and Si•Si3N4 composites is obtained by combining the Si−centered tetrahedral model of Philipp with composite media theory.

The adsorption and incorporation of oxygen on Cu(100) at T ⩾ 300 K

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of the (√2 × √2)R45° structure is accompanied by an increase in the work function, which then decreases again during the formation.

XPS, UPS AND XAES studies of oxygen adsorption on polycrystalline Mg at ∼100 and ∼300 K

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that at both ∼300 and ∼100 K the adsorption of oxygen on evaporated Mg slows dramatically when oxide layers ∼7 A thick have formed on the surface.
