P. Maciejewski et al., DETERMINATION OF ADSORBATE ORIENTATION BY MEANS OF ANGLE-RESOLVED AUGER FINE-STRUCTURE - CO ON NI(110), Journal of electron spectroscopy and related phenomena, 62(1-2), 1993, pp. 1-22
The potential of angle-resolved Auger fine structure measurements for
the determination of the orientation of adsorbed molecules was careful
ly investigated by application to a well-established adsorbate system:
CO on Ni(110). The result, a CO tilt angle of 16 +/- 1-degrees for th
e (2 x 1)p2mg layer, is in good agreement with previously published re
sults obtained with other techniques and proves the usefulness of the
present approach. Experiments, interpretation, and evaluation procedur
es are discussed in some detail to facilitate the application of this
method and its comparison with other techniques.
