Fundamental study of catalysts using laser Raman, infrared, auger electron spectroscopy and low energy electron diffraction. Final report, June 1, 1979-May 31, 1984

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6175436
This research has covered the areas of (a) surface laser Raman spectroscopy (b) LEED (low energy electron diffraction), (c) auger spectroscopy, and (d) thermal desorption spectroscopy. These techniques were used to study structure and desorption of simple molecules adsorbed on nickel and cobalt crystals. Infrared spectroscopy was used to check gas purity. Greatest emphasis was given to surface laser Raman spectroscopy because of its potential to become an important addition to the arsenal of surface probes.
