As a much-enriched supplement to the previous review paper entitled the “Effective work
functions for ionic and electronic emissions from mono-and polycrystalline surfaces”[Prog …

Quantitative surface chemistry depends crucially on an accurate analysis of adsorbed
quantities in the range from submonolayer coverages to several monolayers. Auger electron …

Presently there are two standard methods of refrigeration: One is based on freon
compressors, and the other is based on thermoelectric phenomena. The freon compressor is …

The effective work functions (ϕ+, ϕe and ϕ−) for positive-ionic, electronic, and negative-ionic
emissions from mono-and polycrystalline surfaces are surveyed comprehensively and also …

During the last six decades the theory of Schottky-barrier formation at metal/semiconductor
interfaces has been and still is a matter of scientific controversy. In order to achieve a better …

X-ray photoelectron diffraction patterns of K 2 p core levels have been measured for the Si
(001) 2× 1-K surface. From a kinematical analysis of the diffraction patterns, it is concluded …

We have performed ab initio calculations to investigate the adsorption of Li onto the clean
and oxygenated diamond C (100) surface. Despite a large amount of interest in alkali-metal …

This Report reviews the use of molecular-beam reactive scattering to study the surface
reactions of gas molecules on semiconductors which have relevance to microelectronic …

Exposure of ion bombarded solids to Cs gives rise to a very strong enhancement of the
yields of negatively charged secondary ions and, concurrently, to a lowering of positive ion …

This review primarily deals with the compensation of 'matrix effect'in secondary ion mass
spectrometry (SIMS) for direct quantitative analysis of materials using MCs+-SIMS approach …
