Vibrations in Benzene and Toluene Monolayers on the Basal Plane of Graphite

  • Chapter
Book cover Vibrations at Surfaces

Abstract

The dynamics of an ordered (√7 × √7) layer of C6H6 on microcrystalline graphite (Grafoil, Carbopack) has been studied by neutron spectroscopy. A lattice dynamical calculation on the basis of currently used atom-atom interaction potentials was carried out which explains the experimental data. Similar experi- ments with C6H5 - CH3 in the incommensurate phase showed a strong quasi-elastic scattering intensity which is not present in the commensurate phase but which is also present in the case of a C6H5 - CD3 sample. According to distributions of scattered neutrons which have been computed for a 2-dimensional Debye lattice the quasi-elastic scattering intensity is attributed to acoustic modes in the incommensurate adlayer.
