Abstract

We investigate the nature of the electronic transitions which lead to the desorption of ions from adsorbate-covered metal and semiconductor surfaces. F+ desorption from F/Si occurs via a Knotek-Feibelman mechanism, while H+ desorption from H/Si and O+ from CO/metals involve multi-electron transitions. The desorption of CO+ from CO/metals and NO+ from NO/Si apparently occurs via a simple Menzel-Gomer-Redhead mechanism.
