The interaction of fast H +3 ions with a clean Ni-surface

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

Scattering of H +3 ions from a clean Ni(111) surface is observed at energies below 1 keV and grazing incidence in a time-of-flight system. The interaction with the surface leads to neutral particles mainly which are identified from the energy distributions as H and H2. The neutralisation/dissociation mechanism is probably a resonant charge transfer of Ni electrons into the non-binding ground state of H3.
