Photoemission studies of Ar, Kr and Xe adsorbed on Al(111): Dipole moments, polarizabilities and spatial distributions
Abstract
Submonolayers of rare gases adsorbed on Al(111) have been studied using photoemission techniques. Coverage-dependent core level binding energy shifts and work function changes have been measured; polarizabilities and dipole moments are deduced. Results indicate that adatom spatial distributions for Xe submonolayers adsorbed on Al(111) at 40 K are best described by a random 2-dimensional distribution, and there is negligible charge transfer from the Al substrate onto the Xe adatoms in the photoionization process. © 1982.
