Abstract

Adsorption of cesium and selenium atoms on silicon surface has been considered in terms of the Anderson-Newns-Muskat model with allowance for the dipole-dipole repulsion. The results obtained have been applied to the problem of coadsorption of Cs and Se atoms. It is shown that even a small addition of cesium adatoms to a submonolayer selenium adatom film on silicon strongly increases the charge of selenium adatoms. This effect is initiated by the mutual enhancement of the dipole fields of the Cs and Se adatom sublattices. All the results obtained agree well with experimental observations.
