Surface Studies

Abstract

The aim of this program is (i) to elucidate the interactions causing atoms and molecules to bind to metal surfaces, and (ii) to study the dynamics of gas-solid interactions on an atomic scale, and with an accuracy which has not been possible heretofore. This is required for understanding the fundamental processes underlying catalysis, surface electrochemistry, adhesion, friction, corrosion, and the operation of fuel cells.
