摘要
The electronic properties of samarium layers adsorbed on Cr(211) and Cr(110) surfaces have been studied by XPS and EELS measurements and correlated to previous structural investigations by LEED and AES. The valence state of samarium has been discussed in terms of substrate-adsorbate interactions. For strong Cr-Sm interactions (ordered adlayer structures in registry with the substrate or disordered adsorption in the grooves of the Cr(211) face) only the trivalent Sm state is observed. When Sm-Sm interactions are dominant (dense disordered or incommensurate layers) a mixed-valence character appears and an intermediate value of 2.75 +/- 0.05 is observed for the dense monolayer. Preliminary photodiffraction experiments on Cr(110) suggest that the intermediate valence observed at monolayer coverage could be homogeneous.
