Abstract
Using angle resolved UV photoelectron spectroscopy, coupled with the continuum of polarized light available with synchrotron radiation, we make an interpretation of the photoelectron spectrum of CO adsorbed on Cu(100). We point out that the bonding of CO on Cu as observed by photoemission is considerably different from the bonding of CO on Ni. These differences do not seem to be caused by bonding orientation differences, however, as the CO molecular axis is found to be very close to the surface normal, as was the case for CO on Ni(100). No evidence is found for a second phase of CO on Cu(100).
