Y. Zheng et al., STRUCTURAL DETERMINATION OF NH3 ADSORBED ON NI(100) USING ANGLE-RESOLVED PHOTOEMISSION EXTENDED FINE-STRUCTURE SPECTROSCOPY, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 48(7), 1993, pp. 4760-4766
The structure of NH3 adsorbed on the Ni(100) surface was studied using
the angle-resolved photoemission extended fine-structure (ARPEFS) tec
hnique. The ARPEFS data were taken along the surface normal-emission d
irection at a sample temperature of 100 K. Multiple-scattering spheric
al-wave data analysis determined that NH3 adsorbs at the atop site of
the Ni(100) surface with a N-Ni bond length of 2.01 angstrom and a 2.8
% expansion of the topmost Ni-Ni interlayer spacing.
