Abstract
The 1s level soft x-ray appearance potential spectra of C, N and O chemisorbed on polycrystalline Cr, Mo and W surfaces have been observed. The adsorbate ls spectra show the following characteristic features in the chemisorption regime: (i) Cr: one single peak; (ii) Mo and W: a doublet structure. We tentatively assume that the doublet structure is due to a splitting in the antibonding levels of the surface complex. Oxidation of Mo and W at high temperature causes changes in the metal (Mo 2p 3 2 and W 3d 5 2 ) and in the oxygen 1s spectra as compared with the spectra obtained after room temperature adsorption of oxygen.
