Product state measurements have been applied to surface reactions run under a variety of conditions. Desorbing molecules can be supplied by permeation through a film, by steady state catalytic reaction, molecular beam deposition or by temperature programmed reaction (TPR). The individual... 

For polymer film preparation, especially for the investigation of polymer-on-metal interactions, a molecular beam deposition (MBD) technique is necessary. This technique was first demonstrated for polyimide by Salem and co ...

Surface modification is a domain on its own. To suit certain purposes, dry surfaces can be changed by a number of techniques, such as ion bombardment, molecular beam deposition, sputtering (erosion as a result of bombardment with high-energy molecules), doping, coating or chemisorption. Let it be sufficient to note that, after modification, our techniques can be used to detect and analyse the incurred changes ). 

We report on formation of tin-dioxide nanoislands by molecular-beam deposition of Sn on Si/Si02 substrates followed by thennal oxidation. The microstructure and phase composition of Sn and SnO nanoislands wens studied by TEM. The formation of coreshell Sn02/Sn structures as well as holes in the SnO nanoislands is documented and found to correlate with the thickness of initial Sn layer and with the oxidation temperature. The results are discussed on the basis of the Kirkendall effect with an additional assumption that absorption of oxygen atoms on the oxide surface creates an electric field that promotes the diffusion of metal ions. 

In this report, we present resistivity measurements of K jC o as a fimetion of tempser-aturc and doping. We used ultrahi -vacuum (UHV) molecular beam deposition to dope polycrystalline 60 films with controlled quantities of K while continuously monitoring the time-dependent film resistance near room temperature. The method gives the time, temperature, and concentration dependence of the resistance as well as an estimate for the difiusivity of the K dopant. The stoichiometry of the superconducting phase, which corresponds to a minimum in the...

Because of this rather high sensitivity with regard to oxidation a better approach to determine intrinsic properties of OSC and to construct devices which are not limited by extrinsic properties appears to be organic molecular beam deposition (OMBD) where organic molecules are deposited from the gas phase onto clean, contamination-free metal substrates exhibiting a high structural quality.
