  1. EEW508 II. Structure of Surfaces Reconstruction – (2x1) Reconstruction of Si(100) The (2x1) reconstruction of Si (100) crystal structure as obtained by LEED crystallography. Note that the surface relaxation extends to three atomic layer into the bulk

  2. EEW508 II. Structure of Surfaces (7x7) Reconstruction of Si (111) DAS structure: dimer, adatom, and stacking fault LEED and STM image of (7x7) reconstructed structure of Si (111) The total number of dangling bonds is reduced from 49 to 19 through this reconstruction.

  3. EEW508 II. Structure of Surfaces (7x7) Reconstruction of Si (111) 19 dangling bonds of (7x7) reconstructed surface (12 adatom, 6 rest atom, 1 corner hole)

  4. EEW508 II. Structure of Surfaces Reconstruction on metallic surface – Ir(100) (5x1) reconstruction Bulk structure:the square lattice Surface structure: hexagonally close packed layer

  5. EEW508 II. Structure of Surfaces Reconstruction on metallic surface –Ir (110) missing dimer row (2x1) reconstruction structure

  6. EEW508 II. Structure of Surfaces Reconstruction – Ionic crystal Ionic crystal consists of charged spheres stacked in a lattice.

  7. EEW508 II. Structure of Surfaces Surfaces with strong chemical bonds exhibits more drastic rearrangement of surface atoms Generally speaking, surfaces with weak chemical bonds (van der Waals, hydrogen, dipole-dipole and ion-dipole) exhibits less pronounced reconstructed structure -- for example, Graphite (0001) surface

  8. EEW508 II. Structure of Surfaces Reconstruction of high-Miller-index surfaces Reconstruction at Cu(410) stepped surface. Atoms in the first row at the each step become adatoms which are pointed out in the side view of the reconstructed surface. Roughening transition: If the surface is heated near the melting temperature, the steps become curved and break up into small islands

  9. III. Molecular and Atomic Process on Surfaces

  10. EEW508 III. Molecular and Atomic Process on Surfaces Structure of ordered monolayer When atoms or molecules adsorb on ordered crystal surface, they usually form ordered surface structure over a wide range of temperature and surface coverages. Two factors which decide the surface ordering of adsorbates are Adsorbate-adsorbate(AA) interaction and adsorbate-substrate(AS) interaction Chemisorption – adsorbate-substrate interaction is stronger than adsorbate-adsorbate interaction, so the adsorbate locations are determined by the optimum adsorbate-substrate bonding, while adsorbate-adsorbate interaction decides the long-range ordering of the overlayer. Physisorption or physical adsorption – AA interaction dominates the AS interaction –the surface could exhibit incommensurate structures.

  11. EEW508 III. Molecular and Atomic Process on Surfaces Coverage of adsorbate molecules “Introduction to Surface Chemistry and Catalysis” G. A. Somorjai and Y. Li Definition of coverage: one monolayer corresponds to one adsorbate atom or molecules for each unit cell of the clean, unreconstructed substrate surface. For example, the surface coverage of atom on fcc(100) is one-half a monolayer.

  13. EEW508 III. Molecular and Atomic Process on Surfaces Epitaxial Growth With metallic adsorbates, very close packed overlayers can form because of attractive force among adsorbed metal atoms. When the atomic sizes of the overlayer and substrate metals are nearly the same, we can observe a one-monolayer (1x1) surface. This is called epitaxial growth.

  23. EEW508 III. Molecular and Atomic Process on Surfaces Adsorption of CO on transition metal The preferred adsorption site of CO depends on three factors: The metal, the crystallographic face, and the CO coverage Ni (111) face: CO occupies the bridge sites first Rh(111), Pt(111) the top sites are preferred at low coverages. The threefold site is occupied first on Pd(111).

  24. EEW508 III. Molecular and Atomic Process on Surfaces Adsorption of Ethylene on metal Unsaturated hydrocarbon adsorption on clean transition metal is that it is mainly irreversible. Once unsaturated hydrocarbon molecules are adsorbed on the surface, if the surface is heated, Then the adsorbed molecules will decompose to evolve hydrogen and leave the surface covered with the partially dehydrogenated fragments or carbon.

  25. EEW508 III. Molecular and Atomic Process on Surfaces Desorption of Ethylene on metal Thermal desorption of hydrogen from chemisorbed ethylene on Rh(111) due to thermal dehydrogenation for several coverages. To determine the structure and bonding of these various surface fragments, vibration spectroscopy or HREELS over a temperature range can be used.

Molecular and Atomic Process on Surfaces Case study – graphene on Pt(111) surface The clean surface was then exposed to ethylene at room temperature by backfilling the chamber with ethylene. Exposures were typically greater than 10 Langmuir to ensure saturationof the Pt(111) surface. After exposure, the sample was heated to about 1250 K, resulting in the decomposition of ethylene and formation of a single monolayer of graphite on the Pt(111) surface. M. Enachescu et al. Phys.
