When the electron-escape angle, measured relative to the plane of the graphite substrate, is reduced, a shift towards higher BE and a broadening of Au 4f peak are observed. The line shape is asymmetric. Both effects can be caused by a relative enhancement of the component from Au surface atoms. By taking linear combinations of the 10° and 90° spectra, denoted P(10°) and P(90°), the surface contribution to the Au 4f spectrum [S) is separated in Fig. 3 from the contribution of the deeper lying Au atoms (B), because S is proportional to [P(10°) - 7P(90°)] and B to [P(90°) - P(10°)]. 

Figure 62. Neutron diffraction intensity after subtraction of the background from CO on graphite (Papyex) at 1.58 K and at a coverage of 0.78 monolayers (see also Fig. 25 for comparison). Note the presence of the (20) and (21) reflections (at Q = 1.703 A and 2.253 A , respectively) and the absence of the (10) and (11) reflections (at Q = 0.852 A" and 1.475 A", respectively) as marked by the arrows the solid line is a two-dimensional line-shape fit [309]. The diffraction pattern reveals that CO on graphite remains in the commensurate herringbone stmcwre down to very low temperatures. (From Refs. 177 and 381.)...

Photoluminescence as well as the shape of the Raman diamond line were also the principal parameters in a detailed study of stresses and impurities in diamond films on silicon substrates by Bergman and Nemanich [20]. Diamond films were found to be under net compressive stress. The stress magnitude correlated with the concentration of the graphitic phase. The line shape of the photoluminescent nitrogen band at 25.14 eV (yellow) can be indicative of a uniform distribution of nitrogen centers. 

The carbon spectrum at 790 K is an example of the ability of the catalyst to purify itself. Under these conditions, the carbon compounds are present as elemental carbon with a graphitic valence structure. The wide peak at 284.8 eV and a change in the line shape of the C KW Auger transition (not shown here) indicate a transformation of the graphitic structure to a type of carbon which is susceptible... 

G-Band ( 1590cm ) is assigned to the tangential radial mode of the graphite. The Breit-Wigner-Fano (BWF) line shape in this band indicates the metallic catalysts in the carbon nanotubes ... 

Fig. I. High-resolution electron micrographs of graphitic particles (a) as obtained from the electric arc-deposit, they display a well-defined faceted structure and a large inner hollow space, (b) the same particles after being subjected to intense electron irradiation (note the remarkable spherical shape and the disappearance of the central empty space) dark lines represent graphitic layers.

Pure C02 is stable with respect to carbon deposition, as is pure H2, but there is a large composition range where mixtures of H2 and C02 will deposit graphite. Thus at lower temperatures the deposition curves intersect the ordinate at two points at higher temperatures, they retain their characteristic shape for some time, changing gradually to the almost straight line of the 2000°K curve. 

Tubes are typically 20-30 mm long and 5-10 mm in diameter after the design of Massman. In the past, the tube may have been turned down at the centre to increase the temperature at that point, or the whole tube may have tapered towards the centre ( profiling ) to shape the tube to the optical beam and increase the free atom density at the centre. Modem tubes tend not to have either of these modifications made to them. The graphite tube is held in place between two electrodes, axially in line with the light source, as shown in Fig. 3.4.
