Initial State Shift of the C2s Levels of Chemisorbed Hydrocarbons on Ni.

Abstract

UV photoemission results using filtered H(nu) = 40.8 eV radiation show strong shifts in the low-lying C2s-derived levels of chemisorbed hydrocarbons on Ni relative to the higher-lying sigma-levels. These differential shifts provide evidence for initial state potential and/or rehybridization effects which are important in interpreting high-lying valence orbital shifts and the bonding of chemisorbed species.
