Variable surface composition and radial interface formation in self-assembled free, mixed Ar/Xe clusters
Author
Summary, in English
Using photoelectron spectroscopy, we demonstrate how the self-assembling process of cluster formation in an adiabatic expansion leads to radial segregation and layering as well as to variable surface composition for binary Ar/Xe clusters. The radial structuring can be qualitatively understood from the different interatomic bonding strengths of the two components.
