Abstract

Auger electron spectroscopic studies of cylindrical copper single crystals show large variations with surface orientation in Auger yield from both the clean surface and oxygen adsorbed to saturation on the surface which can be attributed to incident beam effects and “inverse Kikuchi” phenomena. Ways are discussed of minimising the effect of these anisotropies to obtain true comparative surface coverages from Auger electron spectroscopy of different crystal surface orientations.
