Examples in Context

  1. Simulation and detailed analysis of low energy electron diffraction ( LEED ) data.
  2. Low energy electron diffraction, scanning tunneling microscopy, first-principles density-functional theory, and molecular mechanics calculations were used to analyze the adsorption and growth of quinacridone derivatives ( QA ) with alkyl chains of 4 and 16 carbon atoms on an Ag ( 110 ) substrate.
  3. Phase transitions on a clean reconstructed Si ( 100 ) - c ( 8 × 8 ) surface induced by atomic hydrogen adsorption at different temperatures have been studied using low energy electron diffraction ( LEED ).
  4. The surface structure calculated of CO adsorbed on the transition metals surfaces with low energy electron diffraction spectra
  5. Low energy electron diffraction ( LEED ) is used also to study the deposition process of Al on GaAs ( 100 )( 4 × 1 ) surface. The deposited surface is disordered at the beginning and become ordered with Al deposition amount increasing.
