Hydrogen adsorption on a clean Si(100)-2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1 surface has been studied by the high-energy ion- beam method (6-MeV ${F}^{3+}$) combined with low-energy electron diffraction. We report that (1) saturation coverage of hydrogen kept at room temperature is 1.85\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.18 monolayers (ML), and (2) first 1-ML adsorbs rather quickly, leading to 2\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}1-H phase, while more beyond 1 ML occurs very slowly, approaching...
We have investigated the growth of 3 monolayers (ML) Ag on Cu(111) for substrate temperatures from 170 through 640 K by using time flight-impact collision ion scattering spectroscopy (TOF-ICISS). Also, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) topographs were taken after deposition 0.8 ML atoms at room temperature (RT). observed that above 300 K, two different types epitaxial exist:...
A high-energy H+ microbeam generated by tapered glass capillary optics was applied to a single Escherichia coli cell, in order evaluate the effects of irradiation on activity flagellar motor and cell growth real time. The tethered cells stopped with an average ion fluence 2.0 × 1012 protons/cm2. When lower dose attached substrate, elongated which seemed ready divide, divided into two daughter cells; however, did not elongate, neither further division occur.
Impact-collision ion-scattering spectroscopy, low-energy electron diffraction, and Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy have been used to analyze the $\mathrm{Ni}{111}\ensuremath{-}(\sqrt{3}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\sqrt{3})R30\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{}\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{Pb}$ structure. It was found that annealing Pb-covered Ni surfaces with an initial coverage of 0.45 ML gives rise a stable The experimental data computer simulations support structural model for...
Polycrystalline tungsten surfaces were irradiated at room temperature with two kinds of nitrogen ions—N+ and N2+—at 2.5 keV by using an ion beam apparatus. Results X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) experiments performed synchrotron radiation SPring-8 showed that upon irradiation the sample either kind ion, full widths half maximum (FWHM) W 4f7/2 4f5/2 peaks broadened 35.8 eV 37.8 eV—which correspond to WO3 binding energies—increased slightly; this indicated formation nitride subsurface...
The growth of multilayers Au atoms on Ni(111) has been mainly investigated by using time-of-flight-type impact-collision ion-scattering spectroscopy. We found that only two different types epitaxial exist: $\mathrm{Au}[112\mathrm{\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}}]\mathrm{\ensuremath{\parallel}}\mathrm{Ni}[112\mathrm{\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}}]$ (normal mode) and...
The nanostructuring process of Ag atoms on the Ni(111) surface was investigated in two different ways: (1) use a morphological change caused by Pb deposition onto Ag-covered and (2) Volmer-Weber growth mode depositions Pb-covered surface. In case (1), preexisting layer transformed into three-dimensional islands (nanocrystals) during at room temperature: nanocrystals were directly surrounded monoatomic layer. (2), nanoparticles formed not bare surface, but layer: particles found to be mobile...

The surface of a CoO(111) single crystal was treated with vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light at wavelength 172 nm without heat treatment.
