摘要
The NiPd(110) alloy surface was studied using low energy electron diffraction to measure the structure and composition of the first three atomic layers. The surface layer is highly enriched in Pd and has a significantly buckled structure. The second layer is also buckled, with displacements even larger than the surface layer. The second layer also exhibits intralayer segregation (chemical ordering), with alternate close-packed rows of atoms being Ni enriched and Pd enriched. The third layer has a structure and composition close to that of the bulk alloy. These results are compared with results for the other low index faces of NiPd, the extensive literature on NiPt alloy surfaces, and the growing body of theoretical literature for NiPd alloy surfaces.
