Abstract

The interaction of NO with Pt (410) was studied using high-energy resolution fast XPS and temperature programmed desorption/reaction mass spectroscopy. LEED studies show that the surface in the clean state restructures, which results in the formation of some larger {100} terraces. STM measurements show, that most terraces are small,∼ 1nm. Two different binding energy (BE) components were observed in the N 1s region of the core level ...
