These new data fill the gap between the low-v levels mainly observed by continuous wave (CW) PFOODR spectroscopy and the high-v levels above the 3s+3d limit observed by pulsed PFOODR with predissociation detection, Molecular constants are fitted below potential shelf around the 3s+3d atomic limit with previously published data (mainly observed by CW PFOODR) and these new data. RKR potential curve has been calculated with the new constants. The constants are: Te= 32127.090 cm^-1,ωe=121.4099(0.20720) cm^-1, Be = 0.116287(0.0002300) cm^-1, Re=3.551 A, An error of the RKR potential curve of J. Chem. Phys. 108, 7707 (1998) is corrected.展开更多

By analogy with graphene, these contacts can induce electron or hole doping, which may significantly affect the I/V characteristics of the device. Cu is among the most popular metals of choice for contact materials. In this study, we investigate the effect of in situ intercalation of Cu on the electronic structure of atomically precise, spatially aligned armchair GNRs of width N = 7 (7-AGNRs) fabricated via a bottom-up method on the Au(788) surface. Scanning tunneling microscopy data reveal that the complete intercalation of about one monolayer of Cu under 7-AGNRs can be facilitated by gentle annealing of the sample at 80 °C. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) data clearly reflect the one-dimensional character of the 7-AGNR band dispersion before and after intercalation. Moreover, ARPES and core-level photoemission results show that intercalation of Cu leads to significant electron injection into the nanoribbons, which causes a pronounced downshift of the valence and conduction bands of the GNR with respect to the Fermi energy (ΔE ~ 0.5 eV). As demonstrated by ARPES and X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements, the effect of Cu intercalation is restricted to n-doping only, without considerable modification of the band structure of the GNRs. Post-annealing of the 7-AGNRs/Cu/Au(788) system at 200 °C activates the diffusion of Cu into Au and the formation of a Cu-rich surface Au layer. Alloying of intercalated Cu leads to the recovery of the initial position of GNR-related bands with respect to the Fermi energy (E <sub>F</sub>), thus, proving the tunability of the induced n-doping.展开更多
