Abstract:This work is dedicated to Prof. Peter S. Pershan on his 85th birthday. His many pioneering contributions to physics research have provided an inspiring model.We present initial results that demonstrate the ability of Doppler broadening spectroscopy (DBS) to extract elemental information from the topmost atomic layer of a sample surface. Doppler broadening spectra from graphene grown on a polycrystalline Cu substrate was compared to the Doppler broadened spectra obtained after the partial removal of the bilayer… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
