Dissociative nitrogen chemisorption and bonding on Gd(0001).

Journal Article · · Surf. Sci. Lett.
The electronic structure of dissociatively chemisorbed nitrogen on Gd(0001) has been studied using angle-resolved photoemission at 150 K. The symmetry of the nitrogen-induced states and bonding configuration for the initial chemisorption has been identified. Bonding occurs above the Gd(0001) surface plane via the N p{sub z} orbital. Two possible adsorption sites are postulated, with preferential occupancy that is dependent upon coverage.
