ABSTRACTDesorption Mass Spectrometry (DMS) is used to monitor In desorption kinetics at the InAs/GaAs (001) heterointerface. In incorporation is determined to be significantly affected by temperature, surface reconstruction, and the V/III flux ratio. It is shown that the onset of the As-stabilized (2×4)-to-In-stabilized (4×2) surface phase transition is surface stoichiometry dependent, and that both the As-stabilized and the In-stabilized surface exhibit first order desorption behavior. Desorption activation energy of In from the (2×4) and the (4×2) surface is measured. In addition to an In-stabilized regime, an In-accumulated regime is identified by its deviation from first order desorption behavior.

ABSTRACTThe desorption kinetics of hydrogen from the β1 H2 -TPD state on Si(111)7×7 and Si(100)2×l were studied using laser-induced thermal desorption (LITD) and temperature programmed desorption (TPD) techniques. Isothermal LITD studies of H2 desorption from Si(111)7×7 revealed second-order kinetics with a desorption activation energy of Ed = 62 ±4 kcal/mol and a preexponential factor of Vd = 92 ±10 cm2 /s. In contrast, H2 desorption from Si(100)2×l revealed first-order kinetics with an activation energy of Ed = 58 ±2 kcal/mol and a preexponential factor of Vd = 5.5 ±0.5 × 1015 s−1. The desorption kinetics yield similar upper limits for the Si-H bond energies but different desorption mechanisms on Si(lll)7×7 and Si(100)2×l.

AbstractField Desorption Mass Spectrometry, a-Amino Acid Methionine The fragmentation of methionine in field desorption mass spectrometry has been studied. Decomposition mechanisms are described which are based on stable isotope labelling, low and high resolution field desorption, and the application of field desorption kinetics. The combined use of these techniques for the study of some fundamental fragmentations in field desorption is demonstrated successfully. Further, a comparison with the fragmentation pattern of methionine under electron impact, chemical ionization and Curie point pyrolysis is given.

In the present paper the wettability of a liquid metal by another liquid metal is studied theoretically, based on a recent model on interfacial energies in metallic systems. It appears that in all practical cases the liquid metal with a lower surface tension will perfectly wet (with a zero contact angle) the liquid metal with a higher surface tension practically at any temperature, and therefore will encapsulate it. As a result, the first order surface phase transition will start in monotectic metallic systems at 0 K. The phenomenon of the surface phase transition is considered in some details, based on a recent paper.
