Summary: Electronic, structural and dynamic properties of clean metallic surfaces and surfaces covered with atomic and molecular adsorbates, as well as metallic surfaces covered with ultra-thin metallic films are investigated theoretically and experimentally. Theoretical investigations are focused on the model descriptions of interactions of electromagnetic radiation and atomic particles with surface excitations, as encountered in the processes and phenomena of photoemission, photoabsorption, surface scattering, stimulated desorption etc, and on the interpretation of the corresponding experiments. Experimental investigations are concentrated on the determination of the interactions and electronic and structural properties characteristic of adsorbates and adsorbed layers on metallic substrates, typical of adsorption of various gases (oxygen, carbon monoxide, xenon etc.) and metal atoms on metal surfaces. These studies are carried out by means of electron spectroscopies (XPS,UPS, LEED, PAX, AES, etc) and thermal desorption spectroscopy, under UHV conditions.

Keywords: surfaces,adsorbates,surface excitations,surface scattering,adsorption,electron spectroscopies,UHV

Research goals: Investigations of structural, electronic and dynamic properties of metallic surfaces and adsorbates, setting up of microscopic models for description of the systems investigated. Better understanding of the systems and processes investigated through comparison of experimental results and predictions of theoretical models, extension of the knowledge obtained to other areas of science and technology.
