Abstract
Investigations of the CO2/H coadsorption system on Cs-modified Cu(1 1 0), using surface sensitive spectroscopies (photoelectron spectroscopy, LEED, work function changes-Delta Phi), are presented. The valence band spectra, obtained by photoelectron spectroscopy excited by synchrotron radiation, represent "fingerprints" of adsorbed species which were used for determination of their chemical identity. The photoelectron spectra of formic acid and formate are discussed and compared with the results from molecules formed during surface reactions. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
