Abstract

The atomic structure and the saturation coverage of Cs on the Si(0 0 1)(2 × 1) surface at room temperature have been studied by coaxial impact collision ion scattering spectroscopy (CAICISS). For the atomic structure of saturated Cs/Si(0 0 1)(2 -xt 1) surface, it is found that Cs atoms occupy a single adsorption site at T3 on the Si(0 0 1) surface. The height of Cs atoms adsorbed at T3 site is 3:18 ± 0:05 Å from the second layer of Si(0 0 1)(2 × 1) surface. The saturation coverage estimated from the measured CAICISS intensity ratio and the proposed atomic structure is found to be 0:46 × 0:06 ML.
