Adsorption of organic molecules under vacuum conditions

Adsorption of organic molecules under vacuum conditions 

Studying the adsorption of organic molecules with the semiconductor surfaces under vacuum conditions allows the reactivity of the reconstructed surfaces to be investigated. In the case of (100)-2 x 1 reconstructed surfaces of silicon and germanium, 

In the following section, a description of the semiconductor surface and its reactions will be developed with reference to the standard framework of organic chemistry. Rather than give a comprehensive survey of the literature, we have selected examples that illustrate key features of the reactivity. Our discussion focuses on the (100)-2 x 1 reconstructed surface of Si and Ge, with some comparison made to the
