Lm. Struck et al., FEMTOSECOND LASER-INDUCED DESORPTION OF CO FROM CU(100) - COMPARISON OF THEORY AND EXPERIMENT, Physical review letters, 77(22), 1996, pp. 4576-4579
Desorption of CO from Cu(100) by femtosecond laser pulses was investig
ated using state and time-resolved techniques. The results are well de
scribed by two models based on frictional coupling between the CO and
the substrate degrees of freedom: an empirical, 1D model, and recent,
full-dimensionality, molecular dynamics calculations.
