LOW ENERGY ELECTRON DIFFRACTION
What can we get From LEED? LEED is the principal technique for the determination of surface structures. It may be used in one of two ways: 1.Qualitatively: where the diffraction pattern is recorded and analysis of the spot positions yields infor on the size, symmetry and rotational alignment of the adsorbate until cell with respect…

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy/Spectroscopy
Basic Principles The history Types of STM measurements Problems and Solutions P1: Draw an energy-position diagram for a metal surface interfacing the vacuum. Draw in the work function. How is dependent on Eo and EBarr? P2: How big is the factor of change in the tunneling current if you scan over an atom on the…
