Manipulating the orientation of an organic adsorbate on silicon: a NEXAFS study of acetophenone on Si(0 0 1)

Manipulating the orientation of an organic adsorbate on silicon: a NEXAFS study of acetophenone on Si(0 0 1)

We investigate the chemical and structural configuration of acetophenone on Si(001) using synchrotron radiation core-level spectroscopy techniques and density functional theory calculations. Samples were prepared by vapour phase dosing of clean Si(001) surfaces with acetophenone in ultrahigh vacuum. Near edge X-ray adsorption fine structure spectroscopy and photoelectron spectroscopy measurements were …
