  1. 1. Adsorption of Molecules on Metal Surfaces Studied by High Resolution Core Level Photoemission

    Author : Andreas Beutler; Synkrotronljusfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Core level photoemission; molecules; adsorption; single crystal surfaces; metals; metal films; vibrations of adsorbed molecules; surface ordering; carbon monoxide; photoelectron spectroscopy; surface diffusion; Atomic and molecular physics; Atom- och molekylärfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Beutler;

    Abstract : Various aspects of the adsorption of molecules on metal surfaces have been studied making use of different properties of high resolution core level photoemission. A thorough investigation has been performed of the ordering and the site occupancy of CO overlayers on Rh(111). CO has been shown to adsorb in on-top and three-fold-hollow sites. READ MORE

  2. 2. Molecular overlayers on homogeneous and heterogeneous metal surfaces studied by core-level photoemission

    Author : Maria Smedh; Fysiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; photoelectron spectroscopy; core-level photoemission; electron energy loss spectroscopy; single crystal surfaces; metal surfaces; heterogeneous surfaces; adsorption; adsorbed molecules; hydrocarbons; molecular vibrations; carbon monoxide; adsorption sites; adsorption energy; diffusion; dissociation; Physics; Fysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2001:Smedh;

    Abstract : The main topic of this thesis is the investigation of small molecules adsorbed on metal surfaces by means of core-level photoemission spectroscopy. The thesis consists of three parts; The first group of papers concerns the effects of internal molecular vibrations on the core-level photoemission spectra. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modeling of non-equilibrium scanning probe microscopy

    Author : Alexander Gustafsson; Magnus Paulsson; Tchavdar Todorov; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; scanning tunneling microscopy; molecular dynamics; density functional theory; non-equilibrium Green s functions; Condensed Matter Physics; Kondenserade materians fysik;

    Abstract : The work in this thesis is basically divided into two related but separate investigations.The first part treats simple chemical reactions of adsorbate molecules on metallic surfaces, induced by means of a scanning tunneling probe (STM). The investigation serves as a parameter free extension to existing theories. READ MORE

  4. 4. Adsorption and reactions of sulfur dioxide on TiO2 surfaces : Fundamental studies on single crystals and nanoparticles

    Author : David Langhammer; Lars Österlund; Anders Sandell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a material that is well-known among researchers in environmental science but is perhaps less well-known by the general public. It is commonly used in white paint because of its ability to scatter visible light, and for this reason it is manufactured at a large industrial scale. READ MORE

  5. 5. Time-dependent molecular properties in the optical and x-ray regions

    Author : Ulf Ekström; Patrick Norman; Knut Faegri; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum chemistry; molecular physics; x-ray spectroscopy; relativity; Computational physics; Beräkningsfysik;

    Abstract : Time-dependent molecular properties are important for the experimental characterization of molecular materials. We show how these properties can be calculated, for optical and x-ray frequencies, using novel quantum chemical methods. READ MORE
