We present the results of a theoretical investigation of the electromigration wind force for adatom migration in a number of migrator-substrate systems. The theoretical background for our study follows from previous work done on bulk electromigration using the linear-response formalism of Kubo. We treat the electronic…

The adsorption and temperature-dependent decomposition of ${\mathrm{SO}}_{2}$ on Cu(100) and Cu(111) have been studied by fast and high-resolution core-level photoemission. The analysis of the S 2p and O 1s data shows that molecular ${\mathrm{SO}}_{2}$ adsorption dominates at 170 K. On heating the ${\mathrm{SO}}_{2}$-…

We have studied luminescence properties of nanometer-sized Si crystallites fabricated by laser breakdown of ${\mathrm{SiH}}_{4}$ gas. An exponential absorption tail is observed and red photoluminescence (PL) appears in the exponential tail. The PL decay behavior is characterized by a stretched exponential function. At…
