Interaction Of Hg Overlayers With An Ag(100) Surface, Peter A. Dowben, Y.J. Kime, Shikha Varma, M. Onellion, J.L. Erskine

Peter Dowben Publications

The electronic band structure of one, two, and five monolayers of Hg on Ag(100) has been investigated by angle-resolved photoemission. Hg overlayers on Ag(100) form metastable structures that develop via Frank–van der Merwe growth modes. Hg-Hg hybridization results in the formation of a two-dimensional band structure while hybridization of Hg with the underlying Ag(100) substrate results in the adoption of bulklike characteristics for some Hg-induced bands. The Hg-Hg as well as Hg-Ag interactions are discussed.

The Stability And Decomposition Of Gaseous Chloroferrocenes, S. Barfuss, M. Grade, W. Hirschwalde, W. Rosinger, N.M. Boag, D.C. Driscoll, Peter A. Dowben

Peter Dowben Publications

The ionic and neutral decomposition of gaseous ferrocene, 1, 1'-dichloroferrocene and 1, 1', 2,2'- tetrachloroferrocene, has been investigated via photon and electron induced ionization mass spectroscopy. The thermodynamic cycle incorporating the ionic and neutral fragments of ferrocene has been constructed. Elimination reactions in the decomposition of the dichloroferrocene and tetrachloroferrocenes have been identified.
