Abstract

Photon-stimulated ion desorption from deuterated formic acid chemisorbed on Si(100) has been studied using pulsed synchrotron radiation in the energy region of the oxygen 1s electron excitation. The O 1s electrons of hydroxyl oxygen and carbonyl oxygen could be selectively excited in the O K-edge region because the chemical environments are different. It is found that the CDO + yield is enhanced at the O 1 s(CO)→σ∗( CO) resonance and the CD + yield at the O 1 s(CO)→σ∗( CO) resonance. The results indicate that ion desorption is related both to the antibonding character of excited molecular orbitals and the local character of core hole orbitals.
