Popis: | We have taken angle-resolved data for the scattering of low-energy (4 He + from deuterium adsorbed on a stepped Pd (331) surface. The impact geometry was "up the staircase," i.e. the 4 He + beam was perpendicular to and directly incident onto the unshadowed Pd ledge atoms. A strong quasielastic scattering signal of 4 He + from D (4 He +/D) was observed at a forward-scattering angle of θ= 25° and an incidence angle of α= 76° from the (331) normal. The results agree with shadow-cone calculations of scattering first from Pd ledge atoms followed by a second event, 4 He +/D. The resultant adsorption geometry shows D to reside in the quasi-threefold ledge site on the surface directly above the bulk fcc octahedral void. These results are consistent with the previous 4 He + scattering study of the geometrically related Pd(110)-D(ads) system. |
