Fourier transform photoelectron diffraction and its application to molecular orbitals and surface structure

Description: Photoemission intensities from the molecular orbitals of c(2x2)CO/Pt(111) over a wide photon energy range were measured and analyzed by the same methods developed for structural studies using core levels. The 4{sigma} orbital center of gravity is found to be concentrated between the C and O atoms, while that of the 5{sigma} orbital lies between the C atom and the Pt surface. The C 1s photoelectron diffraction was used to determine the adsorption geometry. The earlier ambiguity that multiple sca… more

Fast adaptive flat-histogram ensemble for calculating density of states and enhanced sampling in large systems

Description: We presented an efficient algorithm, fast adaptive flat-histogram ensemble (FAFE), to estimate the density of states (DOS) and to enhance sampling in large systems. FAFE calculates the means of an arbitrary extensive variable U in generalized ensembles to form points on the curve {beta}{sub s}(U) {equivalent_to}{partial_derivative}S(U)/frac/{partial_derivative}U, the derivative of the logarithmic DOS. Unlike the popular Wang-Landau-like (WLL) methods, FAFE satisfies the detailed-balance conditi… more
