Orientational Ordering

The model for the angular orientational energy (AOE) has been extended to hexagonal submonolayer domains of Ag electrodeposited at a constant overpotential on a C(0001) surface. These domains which are characterized by an epitaxy angle θ=15±5° and an Ag−Ag distance d Ag−Ag =0.330± 0.016 nm, can be considered as precursors of 3D Ag crystal formation, according to a Volmer-Weber type mechanism. Calculations are based upon a simple Hamiltonian evaluated by introducing the concept of the commensurable unit cell. A Fourier series expansion for the substrate potential was used. Results from the model predict the existence of a commensurable cell in agreement with the experimental data derived from STM imaging.
