Structural transformations under chlorine adsorption on the Ag(100) surface were investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. DFT calculations revealed that the preferred adsorption site for chlorine atoms is the fourfold hollow position. STM studies showed a disorder-order structural phase transition at increasing chlorine coverage, resulting in the formation of a c(2 x 2) structure on the Ag(100) surface. The critical coverage for ordering was found to be approximately 0.34-0.35 monolayer (ML).
Structural transformations under chlorine adsorption on the Ag(100) surface have been studied with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and within the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The DFT method reveals that the preferable adsorption site of chlorine atoms is the fourfold hollow position. The STM technique is used to study the disorder-order structural phase transition occurring at a gradual increase in the chlorine coverage, which results in formation of the c(2 x 2) structure on the Ag(100) surface. It is found that the critical coverage of the ordering corresponds to approximate to 0.34-0.35 monolayer (ML). The chemisorbed chlorine monolayer is saturated at the coverage of 0.5 ML corresponding to the formation of the c(2 x 2) structure. Further chlorine absorption leads to nucleation and growth of AgCl islands near the edges of atomic steps.
