描述了一种快速高效的方法，用于在超高真空（UHV）室中基于溅射/退火程序在天然晶体上制备清洁且表征良好的（100）黄铁矿表面。通过控制关键污染物水和氧气的进入并将退火温度限制在560 K，这低于SO2解离温度，已经实现了改进。低能电子衍射（LEED）和X射线光电子能谱（XPS）数据用于研究表面。除了提高该表面的溅射技术的效率之外，另一个主要的好处是其对电子束损伤的高稳定性，如通过定量LEED研究所研究的。版权所有© 2008约翰威利父子有限公司。
A quick and highly efficient method is described for the preparation of clean and well‐characterised (100) pyrite surfaces on natural crystals based on a sputter/annealing procedure in an ultra‐high vacuum (UHV) chamber. The improvement has been achieved by controlling the ingress of the key contaminants water and oxygen and restricting the annealing temperature to 560 K, which is below the SO2 dissociation temperature. Low‐energy electron diffraction (LEED) and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) data were used to study the surface. As well as improving the efficiency of the sputtering technique for this surface, a further major benefit is its high stability against electron beam damage as investigated by a quantitative LEED study.
