The dynamics of a strain-induced resistive phase transition in a ${\text{VO}}_{2}$ thin film was studied by using a low-frequency crystal bending stage. It was found that the resistance response of the film to strain excitation is determined by two time constants, interpreted as a nucleation lifetime, in the ${10}^{\e…

We have investigated coadsorption of H 2 O and O ad on the stepped Pt(533) surface using temperature-programmed desorption in combination with isotope exchange. Water desorption from both bare and oxygen precovered Pt(533) gives rise to three easily identifiable peaks in the TPD spectrum between 140−210 K. Only in coa…
