- Abstract:
- S is adsorbed on Pd(111) from the gas phase using H2S as 'carrier' gas.
After adsorption at room temperature a (sqpr(3)*sqrt(3))R30° LEED pattern is observed.
Using STM coexisting (sqrt(3)*sqrt(3))R30°, (sqrt(7)*sqrt(7))R19.1° (2*2) stripes,
(2*2) triangles and disordered S structures are found.
Annealing favors the formation of (sqrt(7)*sqrt(7))R19.1° areas on
the surface. The structure, produced by H2S adsorption are compared
with S structures produced by segregation. A detailed model
for the (sqrt(7)*sqrt(7))R19.1° is developed on the basis of AES and XPS data and FLAPW calculations.
