Abstract

Using molecular beam techniques we have investigated the initial dissociative sticking probability for ethane on a reconstructed Ir(110)-(1 × 2) surface. At kinetic energies below 15 kcal mol the probability of activation at zero surface coverage, S, is constant at about 0.03. With increasing beam energy S increases nearly linearly to a value of 0.40 at an energy near 40 kcal mol. Variation of surface temperature in the range 300 ≤ T ≤ 1400 K does not influence the dependence of S on kinetic energy. © 1986.
