Abstract

Mass-discriminating measurements of the angular distributions of electron-stimulated ion desorption (ESDIAD) from CO adsorbed on W(100) and coadsorbed with C and O have been performed. The O+ beams indicate normal and off-normal (by 5 to 13°) desorption which is interpreted as due to CO molecules bound in symmetric and in two types of unsymmetric bridges. Preadsorption of C suppresses the vertical state, while oxidation of the surface suppresses the off-normal states.
